    REMPROF is a command-line utility to delete local user profiles that are

    NOT in use when this command is executed.

    This utility was written to replace the command DELPROF.EXE currently


    found in the MS Windows Resource Kit. This utility offers extra features
    that will be of benefit to all admins. REMPROF has the ability to delete
    user profiles on the local machine based on age, username, or SID
    association. If a username has been deleted from a Domain or Workgroup,
    the profile often still exists with only a SID assigned to identify it.
    REMPROF can delete these profiles completely from the file system and
    registry regardless of the profile age, and without removing existing
    profiles of the same age.

    This tool could be simply run from the command line at any time, or added
    as a SCHEDULED TASK for regular cleaning of user profiles, reducing the
    overall disk space used for locally based profiles.

    REMPROF will only function when executed by a user with ADMIN rights to the
    profile directory.

    Usage:
    REMPROF [/LIST|username|/A|/D:days|/AD:days] [/EXCLUDE:usernames] [/?]

    /LIST - List all user profiles currently not in use (Default).


    username - Delete user profile based on username.
    /A - Delete all user profiles that have no username association
    including abandoned profile folders.
    i.e. The username has been deleted in Active Directory but
    a profile still exists in form of a SID or the profile did
    not unload correctly and a residue profile folder exists.
    /D:days - Delete all user profiles equal to or older than the number of
    days specified. NB: /D: without a number is equal to /D:0.
    /D:0 will remove CURRENT user profiles not in use.
    /AD:days - Delete all user profiles that have no username association
    and are equal to or older than the number of days specified.
    NB: /AD: without a number is equal to /AD:0.
    /EXCLUDE:username/s - Exclude particular users from being deleted.
    Can accept multiple entries, seperated by comma.
    Must be last command line argument.
    Unassociated profiles cannot be excluded.
    Do not include the Domain Name.
    /? - show this help file

    REMPROF without parameters will execute the /LIST switch by default.

    E.G. REMPROF /D:10 /EXCLUDE:bob,mary


    This command will delete any profile equal or older than 10 days, excluding
    any profile whose username is bob or mary.
