At an organization we support, we run into drive space issues after a year or so due to the build-up of user profiles that have logged into the computer over time. With a few hundred common computers, it is unreasonable to remove them by hand every year when a space issue comes up. These are roaming profiles so none of the information in the profiles need to be kept, however, admin profiles and local profiles should not be removed.
How would I set up an automated removal process in a managed environment?

You can accomplish this fairly easily with PowerShell and WMI. Here is a link to an article that covers the core of what you need. You can build a custom script that can be run manually, or from a scheduled task.
