Report User Profiles Sizes

Recommended Posts

I made this script because we are concerned about the size of User Profiles on our Workstations. The script goes out to a computer, that you type in, and checks the size of each User Profile in Documents and Settings. It reports the size of the profile and the Local Settings folder (which I found to be one of the biggest folders in a User Profile), and \Application Data, \Temp, and \Temporary Internet Files. I may, later on, automate a the deleting of \Temp and \Tempory Internet Files if they are to big.

Check it out and let me know what you think...

Thanks for reading. Your feedback is appreciated.

Cool.

Some simple modifications:

1) Provide own computer name as the default for the input box:

2) Show the report creation time in the report:

3) Allow user to choose path/name of the generated report file via FileSaveDialog.

4) Automatically display report when done.

Prevent part of the problem from happening again by changing the reg key that governs the size of temp internet files to a more reasonable size.

Is the reg key global (applies to the whole computer)? Or is it User based? Because we set Internet Explorer to only use 3 mbs for Temporary Internet Files, then copy the profile that we made the change in to the Default User profile, but, we still end up with large temp inet files directories.

Thanks for the suggestion,

Ian

I do not know of a global key that can be set... I have tried to edit:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\Cache\Content

and then let a new user log on, but the cache was still huge... so, I reduced it manually.

I cannot say that I fully understand how different sections of the registry mirror each other. Read page 11 of this document: http://www.ti-aalst.be/files/ti2_besturing...try_556_pgs.pdf

If you are going to be running a script on various systems - see if you can find that magic key to prevent too many temp inet files.

later....
