Hi All,

I was just wondering how anybody deals with cleaning up temp files etc in WinXP/2000. The problem I am having is that I work in a school where lots of users use each machines, probably about 20 a day. They all have temp files etc and when I run a disk cleanup it only runs for the user it runs as (for example administrator). It would be impossible to run the cleanup as all 1200 users every night so I decided to clean up their files on logout with cleanmgr.exe, which isn't too bad (after I removed the compress files option using the registry). The problem I have now is that it doesn't look very good for one and sometimes cleanmgr just hangs (even after getting rid of the compress files option). Ideally I would like to run a job overnight to clear out all the profiles (except the default user). Failing that I guess I could write a logout script to empty the files but the structure of the profiles seems to make it quite difficult. Also I dont seem to be able to empty the recycle bin from the script.

Any ideas gratefully received, I am getting kind of confused as you can probably tell
