Prevent VMPro from deleting account folder when deleting user?

Does anyone know how to prevent VMPro from deleting the user folder from Accounts when the user is deleted from the IPO? I believe in older versions of VMPro it did not delete user folders when the user was deleted from IPO. Can this behavior be restored? Obviously I could just manually backup the files first, but I am looking to prevent the files from being deleted automatically.
 
I don't remember this being a new feature, and if it is, it's horrible. I'm running 9.1, and I recently deleted quite a few users out of my system, and their folders are still there.

Change the folder name.


You haven't lived until you've been affected by a lack of gratuitous arp.
 
I dont recall seeing where a deleted user deletes the accounts folder for the user.
However the folder name will rename if you change the user name. It kinda disappears in that case.

 
Wow, so I apparently just made this problem up. I cannot reproduce what I thought was occurring. You guys are right, the folders are not being deleted.

UPDATE: So I loaded up my old 9.1.3 demo system to see if the deleted account files were still there and they are not. I guess I will have to do some more testing here.
