    Thanks guys, my main concern is what happens to the data stored on the user profile, looks like in the Shared mode, it will generate a guest profile, and it get destroyed upon user log out.  This will apply to printer/driver mapping, bookmarks etc..

Hy ER2025​ 

Please check the Configuration Profile Settings.

You should be able to manage this with some accounts without deleting profiles through these settings. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test this yet as promised, but it is scheduled for the coming days. 

Good luck!
