User Domain Account Issue
Hi,
I have a user that has been experiencing some issues that I believe might be associated with her domain account. She experiences the same issues, long login time, issues accessing network shares, workstation performance issues, etc. The same symptoms occur not matter which workstation she logs into. When I login or I use another users login on her workstation everything is smooth and responsive.
Besides the last resort option of trashing her domain account and creating a new domain account what can I do to try and fix this?
Thanks

Are you using roaming profiles? You may need to recreate that user's. If after recreation and clearing things out properly, you still have issues, then time to deal with the idea of a new account.
Agreed. Though I would first monitor with procmon to see what is happening in the background while slowness occurs.

Masnrock - No we are not using roaming profiles.
If there are no roaming profiles, then what about any special scripts or GPOs tied to just that user? I'm guessing you've already tried recreating the local profile on at least one system (if not, do so on a system the user doesn't normally use).

masnrock - I've logged into a completely different workstation that the user has never logged into and same results. We are very small so I have no roaming profiles, no scripts or GPO's.
did you check the event logs with eventvwr?
can the user log in as a local user? if yes, is it as slow as when logging into the domain?

masnrock - the only thing that comes to mind is the user name was changed when she got married. That was a few years ago, but come to think about it she's had issues for a while.
So, her old username was dtest and then changed to dwork as an example.
