roaming profile files keep appearing after deleted
i have a computer that is on a roaming profile.
the computer has 3 users on it.
1 is the main person, the other 2 only login to cover the main person during lunch
all three have romaing profiles
the computer has offline caching disabled
at C:\Documents and Settings\ the user profiles are there
example:
main person
person2
person3
old [ in old is the main person profile because it was done as a backup - this folder was created - it is not a login user id ]
could this "old" folder be repopulating old files that the user keeps deleting and upon login
they keep restoring?
i am trying to figure out why they keep reappearing.
thanks

Short answer is no, they "can't" be repopulated from an unrelated, in AD terms, directory. Is the user only loging in to one PC at a time? not left a login open somewhere else?

no. she only logs in to this computer. the other 2 users log in to their own machines, but they are not having any issues. just the main user of this machine.
i can delete a folder in her documents - which is redirected to the server in her roaming profile. restart her computer, login and it is there again??
i should have clarified, this is just in her documents folder \\server\user$
