    Windows deleting files and folders at start up to resolve 'system errors'


    Every day or so, my PC Windows 10 tells me it needs to restart to resolve system errors, and then deletes all recently update files and folders back to the same date each time. It also does it every couple of days at start-up. It seems to be repairing the D:\ drive as that is what is says as its resolving the errors during the reobot.All my old files and folders before this point seem okay. So far I've;a Performed a Command Line ChkDsk in Safe Mode as administratorb Deleted several odd new user profiles on my C:\Users folder eg 'defaultuser100000'c Run SFC.exed Run 'fsutil.dirty query

    C windows installer folder - Delete?

    He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink Windows deleting files and folders at start up to resolve 'system errors' ;)
    Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

    Like:
    First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
    Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
    Then type this in command mode as admin
    mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

    Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    Hey mate (yes im from australia)

    I had this problem just before and fixed it pretty easily.
    Have to use the good old command prompt and delete from there.
    Windows is just gettin shitter and shitter isnt it. might go back to DOS soon lol

    Steps> CMD in run > go to the folder (start menu folder) > type: DEL (watever the filename is) and if it says from filename put in the shortname eg. 034Michael short would maybe be 034Mich~l or sumthing like that.

    THIS WILL WORK, THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME 4 TIMES NOW LOL fukin vista!!*Bang Head :banghead:
