Is it not deleting from either location, or just not %temp%? This is a shutdown script, so the %temp% that you see is part of your profile, which isn't part of the system profile and hence it isn't affected by the shutdown script. If you want the individual %temp% directories to get cleaned out you need to make it a logoff script.<br />
<br />
you can also try &quot;del %temp%\*.* /s /q&quot;

<br />
RD /S /Q %temp%<br />
RD /S /Q C:\Windows\Temp
