However, you can use the checked version of Proquota.exe with a registry change to create a log file in the root folder of drive C that is useful in debugging problems with Proquota.exe. Proquota.exe is invoked by the Limit Profile Size policy. MORE INFORMATION ================ WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. To enable the log file: 1. Rename the Proquota.exe file in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder to Proquota.old or some other name. 2. Copy the checked version of the Proquota.exe file to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder on the client computer that you want to debug. The checked version of the Proquota.exe file must match the version of the operating system being used. 3. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32) and locate the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon 4. Create a new value named ProquotaDebugLevel as a REG_DWORD value. Assign data value 10002 in hexadecimal. 5. Restart the computer. Log information is recorded in the root folder of drive C in the Proquota.log file. You can view the contents of the file with any text editor (such as Notepad).
