GPO Review - Computer Configuration - Windows Settings - Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)

[kcnychief]

It's that time of week again! W00t!

I don't have anything on my particular section of startup and shutdown, however I do have some in the logon/logoff section, but we will get to that at a later time.

Anyone want to share concepts, or the scripts entirely? .VBS or .BAT?

Post away ppl!

I'm thinking something useful here would be to auto-delete all files in the following directories....

c:\documents and settings\%username%\cookies
c:\documents and settings\%username%\local settings\history
c:\documents and settings\%username%\local settings\temp
c:\documents and settings\%username%\local settings\temporary internet files
c:\windows\prefetch
c:\windows\temp

OK, OK, maybe a little aggressive EVERY time, but it's habit. I have dabbled with a batch file to do this before, but I don't always get all the files, or all the folders, or vice versa. I'm learning VBScript, but it's on the back burner due to like a billion other projects.

Anyone have something similar, or input?

hmm, what os are you running, if you are on a network and have AD setup there is an option for that. Not sure about normal login/logout though

I am running WIN2K3 Enterprise

I got a bit confused, the post I put above would have been related to logon/logoff. But, now that I think about it, I could do an else/if type setup to clear all users only at startup/shutdown.

When you start pricing licensing for Microsoft products then it gets expensive. Which I am sure you already know.
