Quota of a users home folder exceeded although the folder is only half full

Hello,

I have a problem with a users home folder under \\domain\users$\homes\user1. He came to me complaining that his quota is exceeded even though his home directory is only half full when looking in Windows Explorer. I did check the folder on the primary DC and confirmed that only 440MB are used but his 1GB quota is reached. To perform some tests, I deleted all files from his home folder and yet ""File Server Resource Manager -> Quota Management -> Quotas" claimed that the folder has 530MB.

In another thread (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverDS/thread/0120c7d0-c94f-4c91-a86c-c6ca3ef48446/) I've been pointed to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2698654. However, according to the description given there, this hotfix does not apply to my problem. Assuming that the user is called user1, we have a lot of profiles called user1-student1, user1-student2 and so on. In the hotfix description, Microsoft specifically says that the problem to be fixed does not apply in this case.

I am open to suggestion regarding the solution of the problem.

Regards,
Oliver
