Hi everyone,

Since today I got this 2 folders in my second HDD. I am not sure what it is and how it got there. Does someone know? I think it happened after a windows update but i'm not sure. The msdownld.tmp is empty and in the 92fd..... is a installer. Can I just delete them?
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks! :D

I generally don't bother.. they will get deleted after a few more reboots in most cases.
