Files and Folders Reappear After Deletion on desktop

[Guest Samer]

Hello..

i have windows 2000 advanced server with SP4 working as domain controller

and file server (all home folders and profiles are stored on it), My domain

users work on windows xp.

the problem is that when a user deletes some files or folders from his

desktop and logoff, the deleted items comes back when he logon again, even

files and folders deleted many months ago they appear on the user desktop.

 

is there any way to stop the files from coming back without using the

mandatory profile?

You probably have roaming profiles that are not working

properly. When the user logs off, his server-based profile

folder does not appear to get updated, perhaps because

of a permission issue.
