I have empty folders in Win7 user\myname\appdata\local\
This is a repost because due to hardware failure, it was lost and I cannot reply to cancerous's post. I have 50 empty folders in my Win7 user\myname\appdata\local\ folder. I'm wondering if I can delete them?
Here is an answer from cancerous and my response (it was lost).
They are most likely temp directories.Are they empty in byte size, or you can't see any files in there? If it's the latter, make sure Show hidden files and folders is turned on in your folder options through the control panel and then review them. If it's the former, then it should be fine to delete them, although I don't see much purpose to it.
******************************
Yes, they are empty an do not contain files....show hiden files and folders is turned on. I won't delete them now but if they are just temp folders and more are added, I might reach some point where I will want to reduce the number of empty folders.
Thanks.
