Freeing space in a full profile folder

A roaming profile is a profile connected to the user and includes, for example, program settings. The roaming profile enables the use of your personal settings on all university work stations. The profile is saved on the server and its maximum size is 300 MB.

You should not save personal files in the profile as it should only be used for program settings. Personal files should be saved on your home drive (Z drive).

Info

The settings of the university’s roaming profile in Windows were changed on 15 November 2016. The settings of the following applications will no longer follow the user when they change computers: Skype (not Skype for Business), Corel VideoStudio Pro, Macromedia, Adobe,  Document Building Blocks, LiveContent, Virtual Box, OneDrive.
