What are those pesky files in my root folder?

  • [アーティクル]

Have you noticed that after you install an OCS server, there are some additional files dropped in the root folder (C:\)? These are the temporary files of the VC++ 2008 Redistributable package, which extracts them to the root of the drive where the installation was run from.

This is the complete list of those pesky files:

The good news is that you can safely delete those files if they are really bothering you. But be careful! Be sure you don’t delete any other file necessary to the smooth operation of the server.

    Why does Microsoft put their *** on my computer without notice ? They think the world belongs to them ?

    They (Microsoft/Bill Gates) they don't think the world belongs to them... They know the world belongs to THEM.
    Visit the site of the "Rockefellers, The Rothschild's, J.P. Morgan, The vab Duyn Dynasty, and all the others.
    They rule the world now and in the future.
    Be alert..
    I am an old man and I am afraid for the yong ones and the youths future.
    Thank you so much.

    Thanks a lot, I wasn't sure if I could just delete any or all of those files. Bad call from Microsoft to just leave those files there, temporary files should be cleaned up after they've done their job, not linger in your frakking root folder!

    Oh yes. These files haunt me, and they will for a couple more years. I also don't like the hexadecimal-named folder, which some other MS product leaves behind. You should think about some system-wide "/tmp" directory, which is guaranteed to be cleaned on reboot, and also the installer could do some cleanup uppon successful install.
