Magic Windows Folders   
Hi,

Why am I getting folders suddenly appearing on my main drive in (Win7
Pro) usually in Hex format ... e5fb213b0f02eb5a ...... etc etc.

Is it crap left behind by Windows? (read only so can't view it) Crap
being the operative word, but Win7 is a bit of an improvement.

Can I safely delete these folders?

TIA

Jack

These folders are usually where Windows "dezips" updates. You can safely 
delete them.
