Thanks for the response 🙂

 

So I need a option to delete all profiles rather than selecting 1 by 1 cant seem to find any script that works with remote access that can do this

Have  you tried to modify your script?  Looks like you can just remove all the user prompt lines/loops (most of your script) and put line 55-56 in a simple foreach loop.
