Re: Deleted Files keep Re-appearing on Desktop

I'm experiencing the same issue. I came across KB287566 which seems to apply
somewhat, but am hesitant to follow these instructions as it may cause issues
with laptops that need their profile when not connected to the network.

Yes we use roaming profiles, as stated in my original message I have deleted
and recreated the user's roaming profile which seemed to work for a while but
now the same deleted files are back. I also deleted his local profile at the
same time I recreated his roaming profile.

This is on a relatively new laptop so I guess you could say it is a
fresh install of XP.

Hello Ron,

Is the XP machine a fresh install or was it upgraded before?

We are using Windows XP with Windows Server 2003. We use roaming
profiles for all of our users. I have one user that cannot
permanently remove certain word or excel files from his desktop. I
have deleted them and then removed them from his roaming profile and
from his local profile and they still come back onto his desktop the
next time he logs in. I have deleted and recreated both his roaming
and local profile which seemed to work for a while but then these
same files suddenly re-appear. Where else could they be coming from?
