Unable to read environment variable

KTB2012 — Tue, 07 Apr 2020 21:58:00 GMT

we are trying to use a domain authentication to read a environment variable from the guest vm. the user never logged in guest vm. looks like vmware was calling LoadUserProfile which internally try to create temporary user profiles folders. we see bunch of folders under C:\user\Temp.* after calling this api couple of times we can't read the env anymore. because windows reaches temporary profiler folder limit i guess. Can some one help to see why vmware is not calling unloaduserprofile all the times?
