Corrupted roaming profile Windows 7

Hello,

we encountered several users getting temporary profiles when logging in to the domain controller (Windows Server 2008). The fix was quite simple, at least it work for our accounts. No garantee this will work for you.

  1. Delete the user account from your windows desktop machine.
    Computer -> System Properties -> Advanced System Properties -> User Profiles
  2. Delete user folder from disk
    Computer -> C: -> Users
  3. Access roaming profile on server and delete NTUSER.DAT, NTUSER.INI and NTUSER.POL
  4. Restart desktop client

Next login worked like a charm and the temporary profile was gone.
