Delete one file from temporary internet files using group policy
Posted on 2013-10-23
Hi
I need to delete one file from the temporary internet files folder using group policy. Seems easy enough, however the file is never deleted and I get this error in app logs: The system cannot find the path specified.
If I enter the file path in to Windows Explorer, it successfully finds the file:
%userprofile%\AppData\Loca
If I use this exact same path in the group policy (user, pref, windows, files), it can't find the file.
Windows 7 clients.
Any ideas please?
Thanks,
James
