The Leave Windows Installer and Group Policy Software Installation Data machine setting should be configured correctly. Determines whether the system retains a roaming user's Windows Installer and Group Policy based software installation data on their profile deletion. By default User profile deletes all information related to a roaming user (which includes the user's settings, data, Windows Installer related data etc.) when their profile is deleted. As a result, the next time a roaming user whose profile was previously deleted on that client logs on, they will need to reinstall all apps published via policy at logon increasing logon time. You can use this policy to change this behavior. If you enable this setting, Windows will not delete Windows Installer or Group Policy software installation data for roaming users when profiles are deleted from the machine. This will improve the performance of Group Policy based Software Installation during user logon when a user profile is deleted and that user subsequently logs on to the machine. If you disable or do not configure this policy, Windows will delete the entire profile for roaming users, including the Windows Installer and Group Policy software installation data when those profiles are deleted. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\User Profiles\Leave Windows Installer and Group Policy Software Installation Data (2) KEY: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\LeaveAppMgmtData
