The easiest way would be to use a logoff script, something to the effect of:<br />
<br />
@ECHO OFF<br />
ECHO Moving files to My Documents<br />
MOVE %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\*.* &quot;%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\&quot; /y<br />
<br />
The /y will overwrite existing files.

Correction, it should be:<br />
<br />
move %userprofile%\desktop\*.pp<wbr />t &quot;%userprofile%\my documents\&quot;<br />
move %userprofile%\desktop\*.do<wbr />c &quot;%userprofile%\my documents\&quot;<br />
<br />
<br />
I do not recommend to move *.*, as it will also move all normal shortcuts on the desktops.

Correction, it should be:

move %userprofile%\desktop\*.ppt "%userprofile%\my documents\"
move %userprofile%\desktop\*.doc "%userprofile%\my documents\"


I do not recommend to move *.*, as it will also move all normal shortcuts on the desktops.

We have several meeting rooms machines which login with the same account. Users drag copies of presentations onto the desktop and dont delete them. We ideally want a way to copy all documents saved on the desktop into a folder on the desktop or to the My Documents folder every time the user logs out or the machine is restarted. Any suggestions?

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
