    script to delete users profile

    A few more questions that may be asked...

    1. Are these domain user profiles on the PC or local users?
    2. Do you need logging of success/failure/names of deleted profiles, etc. and, if so, seperate logs or a combined one?
    3. What filepath to use for any log(s)?

    copying profiles in Vista Home Premium

    Hello all. i have Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. I have one user profile "Andy". I would like to copy this profile to a new profile called "Andrew" and then delete the "Andy" profile.

    I tried to create the Andrew profile through user accounts in control panel, but sometimes the 'Andrew' user doesn't show up in the users folder, and sometimes there's a TEMP folder instead. When I fo into the Andrew user account, it says

    Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with the default profile for the system. Please see the event log for details or contact youru administrator"

    What steps do i need to take to create the user profile for "Andrew", copy the "Andy" profile into the "Andrew" user file, and delete the "Andy" profile? I read where you should disable UAC and i have tried that, but to no advail. Also, do I need to enable the built in administrator? Thanks for you help.

    - Josh
