Error removing user account in SBS 2008

I'v created the user account 'jrf' with the SBS add user wizard

I spelled the login name wrong and want to remove it again

The add user wizard warns me that i cannont delete
c:\users\folderredirections\jrf.

I tried manually to delete the folder, agin with the loacal administrator
account. A succed in taking ownership og the folder and it's subfolders but
still i can't delete the folder. I tried to delete the contents of the
subfolder, and gets the same error.

The i tried to move the folder to the c:\temp and that i managed, but i
still cannot delete the folder.

I get the same error no matter which account i want to remome.

Help needed and apreciated.

Thanks

In Server Management or ADUC, right click the object, select properties and
change the name. there are several places, so you have to be careful you
get them all, if in fact they are all / most spelled incorrectly. The names
are simply lables for humans to read. Windows uses the associated Security
ID, or SID.

Thanks Larry for you mail.

The problem is not the account, but the redrected folder.

The issues is maybe more a problem, when you want to delete an account
permanently, when the old user folders piles up in mey tem folder, as long as
i cannot delete the redirected folders..

Have a nice day

Cheers
