Is there a way to delete temporary internet files from all the individual
User Profiles. I have common area machine with 80 user profiles, and each is
loaded with Internet Temp Files...

You could run this batch file:

@echo off
for /d %%a in ("c:\Documents and Settings\*.*") do
echo rd /s /q "%%a\local settings\temporary internet files\content.ie5"
echo md "%%a\local settings\temporary internet files\content.ie5"
)

Remove the two "echo" words to activate the batch file.

Take a look at CCleaner as a tool to remove Internet history info, cookies,
temp files, auto complete and other junk.
In the 'Windows' tab check the item types you want deleted in the list.
Then use Options/Custom to add the folders you want files deleted from.

CCleaner, like Windows Disk Cleanup, apparently only flags TIFs from the
current user, not from all users.

Here is an article on that.

Save system restore point first.

No mention of whether it would work with multiple profiles though.

Just ran a test and it did remove TIFs from multiple users.

Must be an update as it didn't do that before. Glad to hear that it's
changed.

I wound up using the FOR... along with the RD... but the MD... didn't run in
the For loop so I just omitted the command as I didn't think it needed to be
recreated...

Thanks!
