Problem with USMTUTILS.EXE

[sweety_devil]

Dear all,

 

I try to delete the userstate folder but I can't.

When I copy manually the command echo y| usmtutils.exe /rd %SystemDrive%\UserState in command prompt it works but when i create a bat file with the same command it doesn't work.I received this error message:

 

The syntax is not the same.

 

Thank you.

What does your batchfile looks like then? I am doing exactly the same with a batchfile that contains a command like this: echo y| usmtutils.exe /rd <storedirectory>.

[sweety_devil]

it is just a file named usmtutils.cmd with this command line echo y| usmtutils.exe /rd %systemdrive%\userstate

 

I renammed the file I use to txt because cmd was not allow to upload.

 

Thank you.

usmtutils.txt

When and how are you calling this batchfile? As the problem might just be that it can't find the usmtutils...

[sweety_devil]

I created a package with usmtutils.exe and the batch file.

I think the program is found but I don't know why there is 3 space between y and | when it is launched from a batch file.

I would change the batchfile then to echo y| %~dp0usmtutils.exe /rd %systemdrive%\userstate

I show you my task sequence and the error I received:

 

 

I receive this error:

Which file ? usmtutils.exe ?

The location is good and when i run this command manually it works.

 

Thank you.

echo y| \\srvfile\groups\everyone\xxxxx\usmtutils\usmtutils.exe /rd C:\userstate

 

Thank you.
