Delete profiles in Citrix Xenapp

Hi
Yesterday the c drive filled up on our xenapp servers. On investigation it was the users folder which had grown and caused the problem. We only publish apps to our users, so we dont need to store profiles.

What is the best way of keeping the users folder small? Could I write a powershell script to delete all profiles once every week or would this not be best practice?

Thanks

John

You can use the profile management tool to delete the profile whenever user get logged of from their session. You just have to install the profile management tool and import adm file configure group policy to remove the profiles from servers. To install \ configure use this doc for reference http://www.virtuallyimpossible.co.uk/install-and-configure-profile-management-for-citrix-xenapp-6-5/

Or you can use the delprof tool too remove the profile from server, some time profile get lock and it wont delete.  For syntax https://helgeklein.com/free-tools/delprof2-user-profile-deletion-tool/ 

But i suggest to go for citrix profile management tool.
