Error: Profile Storage Space exceeded

[Vicious]

I have a desktop pc running Windows XP and I keep getting an Windows error message "Exceeded my profile storage space". What else is that my pc is running very slow. I have tried to deleted all the unnecessary files, temp files, cookies, etc; but it didnt help me either. I have scanned my pc with Avg antivirus but there was nothing found either. So can anybody tell me hot to resolve this issue? Thanks for any help.

There must be a list of the files displayed if you exceed space in your profile manager when you log out. You can also see them by double-clicking on the profile icon in the system tray right at the bottom of the screen. You first need to delete any files you have saved on your desktop. And secondly you also need to delete large files from Application Data.

It maybe the error message that might be occuring when you increase the maximum profile size:

RESOLUTION

• Use a text editor, such as Notepad, to open the System.adm file on a Windows domain controller.
• This file is found the %SystemRoot%\Winnt\Inf folder by default.
• Locate the following section:

PART !!ProfileSize NUMERIC REQUIRED SPIN 100
VALUENAME "MaxProfileSize"
DEFAULT 30000
MAX 30000
MIN 300
END PART

• Increase the maximum size value (Max) to the size that is required for your network users. (This value is set to 30000 by default, which is equal to 30 MBs.)
• Save the file in the %SystemRoot%\Winnt\Inf folder.
• Click Start, click Programs, click Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.
• Click to expand Active Directory Users and Computers, and then click to expand the domain name.
• Right-click the organizational unit that you want the policy restriction to be applied for, click Properties, and then click the Group Policy tab.
• Click New, and then add a new Group Policy.
• Click the new policy, and then click Edit.
• Click to expand User Configuration, click to expand Administrative Templates, click to expand System, and then click Logon/Logoff.
• Double-click Limit profile size in the right pane, and then click Enable.
• Change the new maximum profile size to accommodate the network, click Apply, and then click OK.
• Close the Group Policies window, and then quit the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in.
