One of our user deletes folders and files on his desktop. He is using vista 64 bit edition and roaming profile. When he restarted his pc or log on again in the domain the folders or files he deleted keeps coming back on the desktop. Please help.

The first thing i'd try is to see if these items are on "all users" desktop. Then i'd get him logged off and check the server ie: \\servername\userprofile$\username\desktop and delete it directly from his roaming profile. Then delete his profile from his local machine so that it doesn't pull it from there

I just check his laptop, he is actually using windows vista ultimate 64bit, Sometimes when he login on his laptop it says that it can't load his complete profile, temporary profile on the local machine will instead, might something to do with the folder permission(not sure because sometimes it loads completely), desktop file on the server is not synchronizing with his desktop in his laptop.. Need to solve this issue :(

It might solve the issue he was having, the problem is, he is only using his laptop and not using different computers, so he is not loading his profile into another computer.
