Resetting Windows Roaming Profile

Hi There!!!

May be I'm asking for too much... but please if you have some suggestions, it'll help me a lot.

I've a Citrix farm with Roaming user profiles.  For many times, if there is any application issue for a user, app teams are asking us to reset the user profile and with the new profile the application is working fine.
What I would like to understand is, Is there any way a user can reset his own roaming profile??? I've made lot of search in Google and found below site which is interesting...

Can some please let me know how they are able to achieve this???

Thanks in advance...

  Resetting Windows Roaming Profile
 

Find a spare machine and reboot it. Select the "Refresh" option when the Rembo menu comes up. Continue to the next step, making sure nobody else uses that machine while you're working on everything else.

If you are logged into *more than one* machine, log out of *all except one* of them; otherwise, log in on a spare machine in the lab (leave the other one refreshing). You must only be logged into one machine for this to work.

Double click on "My Computer" and double click on your home drive "H:".

Right click on the H: drive window.

Select "New", then "Text Document".

Change the text "New Text Document.txt" to "REMOVE_MY_PROFILE.txt". - If you are not given an option to do this immediately, right click on the file and select "Rename". It will highlight the filename and you can replace the name with "REMOVE_MY_PROFILE.txt" (sans the quotation marks, of course).

Reboot this system via the option in the "start" "shutdown" window ". Wait a minute or so to be sure your profile was written back to the server.

Log back into the network on the computer that you refreshed; it should be ready for you by now. (Picking a recently refreshed machine to log into the first time means that you get a clean set of registry settings, just as the image builders intended.)

If the process was successful the text file you created on your H: drive will be gone. Your old profile files, (.ntuser.dat, .ntuser.ini, .ntuser.pol), will have been copied to the top directory of your H: drive with a prefix of old, these may be removed at your leisure.

If the process failed there are a couple of possible causes:

(1) You are over quota. This can be checked through the properties of your H: drive (Free Space), it may not actually show that you are over quota because any work you have written to your desktop in your current login session may not be included in this value.

(2) Your profile is totally corrupted and is not being written. You will see an error message on logout if this is the case. The solution to this is (at present) to contact student-helpdesk@itee.uq.edu.au and well fix it for you.
