Re: Delete home directory when deleting a user?

You can create a post-user batch procedure to do this for you. You will create the batch file and name it something like c:\share.bat. Then go to Tools->Settings->User and enter c:\share.bat in the Batch file to run for all user changes box.

Your batch file will look something like:

@echo on
if %1 == ADD goto ADD
if %1 == MODIFY goto MODIFY
if %1 == DEL goto DEL
goto END

EL
rd \\%5\E$\users\%3
goto END

:ADD
goto END

:MODIFY
goto END

:END

After you have this in place, when you delete a user it will run this batch file.

We have a [optional] feature planned for the next release to do this. We'll have a dialog that can browse the contents, remove files, remove everything, remove the share, etc. during the user deletion process.

If you want to join our beta list, send an empty email to [email protected]. We hope to have a working beta of this feature by the end of next month.
