										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>UPD, short for User Profile Disks, is a new disk type for Remote Desktop Services in Windows Server 2012 R2. It&#8217;s an alternative to roaming profiles and folder redirections for RDS to store user profiles as a separate VHDX disk on dedicated file storage. The disk is mounted to the user session as soon as the user logs into the RDS server and gets unmounted when the user logs off.</p>
<p>If you have a lot of users using RDS with UPD enabled, there will be a lot of individual UDP files stored on the file share, named with the unique GUID of the AD user, like below:</p>

<p>So, how to identify which UPD disk belongs to which user account?</p>
<p>You can use the following PowerShell cmdlet to find out the user based on the GUID.</p>
<pre class="">Get-ADUser -fileter {SID - like "GUID"}</pre>
<p>Or, find out the GUID based on the user account ID.</p>
<pre class="">Get-ADUser -filter {SamAccountName -like "UserID"}</pre>
<p>Or, even better, use this little portable standalone tool called <a href="https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Sidder-Quickly-see-which-fa6360b3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sidder</a> to help you to quickly identify which UDP belongs to which AD user. You will need .Net 4.5 Framework to use this tool.</p>

<p>The ones in orange are the ones that are in use at the moment. The tool also allows you to delete UPD as well. Deleting UPD will result in a fresh start for that user next time when they log in.</p>The post <a href="https://www.kjctech.net/how-to-tell-which-user-profile-disk-upd-belongs-to-which-ad-user/">How To Tell Which User Profile Disk UPD Belongs to Which AD User</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.kjctech.net">KC's Blog</a>.]]></content:encoded>
