    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)?

    Command Prompt (Admin).

    2. On the Command Prompt window, type in net user and press
    Enter.

    3. A list of user profiles on your computer will appear, if you see the user account you wish to disable then you can type:

    net user ExampleUserName /active:no (note the space between the end of the user name and the /) and press
    Enter.

    Note: Make sure that you have other accounts available to your computer with Administrator rights before performing this method.
