Zip VS AppData\Local

Hello, Minh Ho ng Lê

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble with the ZIP files that contain applications and resources. I can understand how frustrating it can be when Windows creates duplicate files in the AppData folder and causes confusion. Let me try to explain why this happens and how you can prevent it.

The AppData folder is a special folder that Windows uses to store application-specific data, such as settings, preferences, caches, temporary files, etc. Each user on the computer has their own AppData folder, which is located in C:\Users<user>\AppData. The AppData folder has three subfolders: Local, LocalLow, and Roaming. The Local folder is used for data that is specific to the current computer and does not need to be synchronized with other devices. The LocalLow folder is used for data that has low priority or low integrity, such as web browser data. The Roaming folder is used for data that can be synchronized with other devices, such as user profiles and settings.

When you run an application from a ZIP file, Windows may create a copy of the application and its resources in the AppData\Local folder. This is done for several reasons, such as:

• To improve the performance and reliability of the application by reducing the dependency on the ZIP file.
  
• To allow the application to access the resources without requiring elevated permissions or UAC prompts.
  
• To enable the application to update itself or download additional resources without modifying the ZIP file.
  
• To isolate the application from other applications and prevent conflicts or corruption.
  

However, this also means that any changes you make to the resources in the ZIP file may not be reflected in the AppData\Local copy, and vice versa. This can create confusion and inconsistency when you want to add or modify personal files or other resources.

To prevent Windows from creating duplicate files in the AppData\Local folder, you have a few options:

• You can extract the ZIP file to a regular folder and run the application from there. This way, Windows will not create a copy of the application and its resources in the AppData\Local folder, and any changes you make to the resources will be saved in the same folder as the application.
  
• You can use a portable application launcher, such as PortableApps or Cameyo, to run the application from the ZIP file. These tools will create a virtual environment for the application and redirect its data to a separate folder or file. This way, Windows will not create a copy of the application and its resources in the AppData\Local folder, and any changes you make to the resources will be saved in the virtual environment.
  
• You can disable or modify the behavior of Windows regarding creating copies of applications and resources in the AppData\Local folder. This is not recommended, as it may cause problems with some applications or Windows features.
  

I hope this helps you understand why Windows creates duplicate files in the AppData\Local folder and how you can prevent it. If you have any further questions or feedback, please feel free to ask me.

Best regards

Yuhao Li

System Restore brings a system to an operable condition after a disaster so that it can again accept and process data.

• Press Windows Key + R Key
