Ask question asked 16 years, 9 months ago modified 5 years, 10 months ago The temp folder is not always deleted, even after proper shutdowns, and the space can pile up to large proportions. The original user's profile directory lives in a directory like c:\users\username\appdata. Applications installed to %localappdata% would only be available to the user.

How can i refer to the current user's profile directory when using the windows command line? You don't need to delete the folder itself though, only its content.
Navigate to c:\users\username\appdata execute the following command:
The appdata folder is located in a user's folder, eg: Mklink /d local d:\appdata\local replace d:\appdata\local with the actual path of where you moved the appdata to.
