True, there are many applications that store superfluous data under local
settings, however, some people like to keep their profile streamlined and
this option helps that. Plus, Microsoft’s /cleanreminders clearly doesn’t
work for all and having deleted and recreated the outlook profile, other than
deleting the users profile, this was the next best option. Should Microsoft
have a better option to resolve the reminders issue then I’d be glad to use
that. As for local video card settings – mine were unaltered.

if the clean reminders doesn’t work, open up a command prompt and navigate
to
the users directory files (eg c:\documents and settings\username) then
type

rd /q /s local settings

this deletes the temp local settings (IE temp cached files too). make sure
outlook is closed when you do this.

I don't like this advice. There are many more applications that keep data
under the Local Settings folder than just Outlook. Your advice would
destroy your browsing history, Adobe Acrobat update information, Outlook
Express folders, localized video card settings, and data for various
Symantec products, to name but a few.
