changing between users profiles

[Eddie]

If I need to change something in each users profile on a
computer, what command could I use to move from one users
profile to the next without knowing the users name.

You'd need to be more specific. Registry or files?

Do you mean you need take a file level action in each Profile tree
under the profileroot (often: c:\documents and settings\)?

sorry, trying write a batch to delete all cookies in each
users profile, but not sure what command to use to go from
one user profile to the next without using the users name.
which would make for a very very long batch file. thanks
for any help

Okay.
Point one: the FOR command can enumerate the directories under the
profileroot and provide them to another portion of the batch file for
subsequent action. (Not detailed here)

But,
When dealing with Temporary Internet Files and Cookies there is
another issue in that at least one location will be locked and in use
at any time the system is up.

I feel unqualified to advise on TIF/Cookies issue from batch (since I
avoid the whole thing anyway where possible). There are some
available tools and techniques out there (with which I am not
familiar) that may be what you would want.

The fact that you want to do this "globally" for all profiles may
eliminate some solutions (as they are designed for "the current
user").

I suggest you re-post to a new thread and keep the subject focused as
in (suggestion only)
"How to delete all cookies in all profiles?"

Sorry that I could not be more help and good luck.
