I was looking for something better than this, but I tink I'll stick with it given the other options :- KPMS

Hmph "This Software can only be installed on a machine from the Acer Group" should have guessed.

Anyone tried this? Free for Acer Educational customers. Wondering if that is the number of seats you have bought from Acer or not?! Acer for Education - Acer Classroom Manager

I run this batch file on startup using machine GPO. (Not log off, sorry) Have been doing it for donkeys. We have a user naming convention for all students whereby username starts with year of entry (e.g 08 this year ) leaves the other profiles I want to keep (none student) on the PCs. ---------------- @echo off c: cd\documents and settings for /f %%f IN ('dir /b 03*; dir /b 04*; dir /b 05*; dir /b 06*; dir /b 07*; dir /b 08*; dir /b 09*') DO rd /s /q %%f -----------------

Modify the built in expiry date by extracting the installation package to a temporary location and then modify the expiry date within the setupversioninfo.txt file. First step is to extract the files. * If you have Winzip installed, use the "Extract to" feature to extract the files to a temporary folder e.g. c:temp. * If you don't have an extraction program you can run the program to initiate the self-extracting package to decompress into your temporary folder; usually found in C:\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\Temp folder. After locating the extracted files copy the entire directory to another location and then cancel the installation wizard. NOTE: Its normally a good idea to clean up the local temporary folder of older files and folders before the extraction. Within the temporary folder locate the setupversioninfo.txt file and using a text editor modify the appropriate package name expiry date to something 20years away! i.e. FullExpiry20031231 (would be for Ranger for Network), SoloExpiry20031231 (would be for a Ranger Solo package).
