Hi,

firstly why use group policy to remove? I don't think that is possible though you can limit the userprofiles in the folder.
Asume that you are using roaming profiles.
Asume you keep a number of profiles on the pc to reduce bandwidth usage.

Why not schedule a script that list profiles in the folder and delete the profiles above certain number. Or even better run at logoff.

I am trying to create a vbscript that will delete a folder from multiple user profiles. I thought the correct syntax was C:\documents and setting\%userprofile%\foldername. Any suggestions?

For XP, yes, for 2000, yes, for Vista...no.
