Deleting a profile that is greyed out

[E_G_R2]

Hi,

 

I need to delete a profile but the 'delete' button is greyed out in control panel -> User Accounts -> Configure advanced user profile

 

Am I right in guessing that I can delete the user profile folders on the server and then remove the user sub key entry from this registry location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

 

Just want to be sure to do this right

Should be! Those 2 steps are all I do when I'm deleting a profile off a machine if it starts playing funny, it always recreates properly, no username.000 etc.

Delprof2 can also remove them, and if you wanted to enable the grey box, then a little utility called Windows Enabler will make magic happen

 

DelProf2.exe /id:ACCOUNT_NAME
