That's just it I'm not able to determine who the owner of the profile is when I click on the security for the profile. &nbsp;I'm logged in as the domain administrator so I would think I had access to everything. &nbsp;It says that I can take ownership if I need to. &nbsp;Yes the user is logged off of the network when I attempt to rename the profile. What would you suggest?

I have a user who has corrupted his roaming profile in Windows XP. &nbsp;I have tried following some of the posts on here but as I am unable to remove nor rename the profile on the Windows 2003 server I haven't been successful. &nbsp;I have even tried creating a new profile for the user on the server but it will not create a new roaming profile under the existing profiles for the organization. &nbsp;Any idea how I can fix this corruption if I can't rename or remove the old one on the server? &nbsp; Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
