Web Part resource files
In addition to the installation directory, there is a Web Part resources directory that contains the files used to support custom Web Parts in Office SharePoint Server 2007. The %COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\wpresources directory contains a Web.config file that is used to help control the security for ASP.NET files used in Web Parts. For more information about custom Web Parts, see the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0: Software Development Kit (SDK) (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=103449&clcid=0x409).
