Windows 2000 Profiles

[Guest]

"In Win2K or later, Windows compares the date stamps and
timestamps of the files in the local and roaming profiles
to determine which ones need to be written on logoff, then
writes only those files."

What happens if you want to delete something from your
local profile. Will that automatically delete it from your
roaming profile. I am experiencing many users getting
large profiles. One reason commonly seems to be due to
there being recovered documents stored in documents and
settings\application data\microsoft word Should I exclude
this from the roaming profile as well? If so I assume that
I will need to manually go into each users profile and
delete the folder from the server to stop it being copied
back down. Thanks Rob
