Termp Folder and its subfolders

If you open %TEMP% from the Start menu, it may open C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\1, C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\2, and so on. Each time the user logs off and back on, the number increments. The number resets after each reboot. Why are we seeing these folders being created under Temp? What would cause the operating system to create these folders?

The problem lay in the group policy(Run->gpedit.msc)

for Windows XP: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services\Temporary folders 

for Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desltop Session Host\Temporary folders

If you don't select Do not use temporary folders per session, then these TEMP subdirectories are created. There is also a knowledge base article describing the registry keys behind these group policies.

The corresponding registry keys are as following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server
