Non-lab specific software is updated automatically. E.g. Java, Flash, Notepad++, Firefox, putty, winscp
Windows updates are set to run automatically (using Window's built in Windows Update tool).

Student Desktop (C:\Users\Student\Desktop) and downloads (C:\Users\Student\Downloads) cleaned nightly for 100 and 200 level classes. (These directories are cleaned at reimage between semesters for level 300 and greater classes.)
Public Desktop (C:\Users\Public\Desktop) is cleaned about once every 5 minutes. This should not be a problem because the Public Desktop is not the default Desktop folder for any user.
%WINTMP% (e.g. c:\Windows\Temp) files and directories over 30 days old are deleted.
Print jobs older than 4 hours are deleted nightly.
Internet Explorer 11 history cleared nightly.
