Temp Profile issue 2008 R2 RDS using roaming profiles

Temp Profile issue 2008 R2 RDS using roaming profiles

Issue
Some of our users keep getting logged on with a temporary profile.

Scenario
We have an RDS cluster using Window 2008 R2 x64 and users are setup with roaming profiles.

Profiles going to \\server\users\%username% Intermittently the folder is being created in the profile share but the folder is empty.

Permissions checked ok Shares checked ok

Cause
Possibly caused by a server crash corrupting the profiles instead of a natural logoff allowing the profile to write back.

Solution
Browse the registry on your terminal server under :  LM\software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVerision\ProfileList

Look for any keys under ProfileList with an extension “.bat”
Select key and click delete (export or backup any keys before making changes or deletions first.)
