Coffee4Joe Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 [Config.msi Folder*] LangSecRef=3025 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders Default=False RegKey1=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders|C:\Config.Msi\ FileKey1=%SystemDrive%\Config.msi|*.*|REMOVESELF I haven't tested it but I do wonder if RegKey1 will cause an MSI installer to fail, and I wonder if Windows Installer is smart enough to re-create that registry key to know where it unpacks the setup files. I believe windows should automatically deleted the key after the installation is finnished if the install doesn't fail. /me waits for patch tuesday to see if it makes & deletes the file + key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winapp2.ini Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Someone tweeted me and mentioned that an entry causes Windows Defender to not start up correctly when it's set to boot with windows.

Moderators Andavari Posted April 4, 2013 Moderators Share Posted April 4, 2013 Note: FileKey2 in both entries, the log .dat files can't be deleted; why the first person added it I have no idea. Most antivirus' have to be fully turned off to delete logs, backup files, etc., and I'm not just talking about their services their drivers have to also be stopped - something which Nirsoft ServiWin can do. Maybe that's why someone wrote it, but I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back_track Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 This is a Prime example of not cleaning junk. Entire Programs do not belong on the PUBLIC file, what is AVM updater that the entire program should be removed without even a warning. If you don't want it uninstall it or physically delete it...or explain why I'm wrong. it is not a programm its only the installer from the avm driver which you don't need for unistall.

Maybe that's why someone wrote it, but I don't know. Makes sense. Looks like ESET creates an eScan folder within the Log folder that contains some .dat files that can be deleted. Message from ESET : “You should be able to delete the folder updfiles but I would recommend to do this in safe mode for the antivirus package alternatively if you wish to delete the updfiles folder for ESET Remote Administrator then remeber to stop the ERA service.” Every line of code written by man can be undone by man .

SMalik Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I had posted [Adobe Acrobat Setup Files*] and [Adobe Reader Setup Files*] entries but now, I have removed them because I believe CCleaner is a program to clean Internet junk and optimize Windows not to erase the Installation files of the programs.

I have {remove} on my system I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 on my system. I always wipe traces of this program using that entry without any issue.
