Unable to Delete Roaming Profiles or Local

I have a few users on 1 computer that will not allow me to delete the users
profile. It doesn't matter if the accounts are Local or Roaming. I am using
the Domoain admin and the Local computer accounts to try to delete them.

If I try to delete the folders themselfes, I get an error stating the files
are in use. If i check the processes running there are no processes running
for the users I am trying to delete.

Any Ideas

Please Help

Thank You

OK. Try booting into safe mode, log on as local admin, get rid of the user
accounts involved (if they're local ones), go into Doc&Settings, Take
Ownership of the user profile structures involved (or just add your local
admin account with Full Control permissions to the structure) and then try
to delete them. That should work.
