Erik; I was able to delete one of the profiles by using your advice. However, the final profile I want to get rid of is being stubborn. I was able to delete all folders and files in this profile except the TRANS~1 and H46C90~1 files. Both errors claim that it "Cannot find the specified file". Both files are in the temporary internet files folder. I did a search for the files with no results. Are these files needed to delete the profile? I am a bit confused because I have deleted all other parts of the profile but the temp internet files folder will not go away due to these files "not being found". Thanks for any help you can give. Tim
