Hello

I am running win 7 64bit and have uninstalled both media center and media player however the folder art cache/localmls shows as 1.5GB in size even tho it is empty, my virus scanner still picks up all the artwork in this folder as well, how can i remove these files and gain this space back ?

Thanks

The folder C:\users\(Username)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player\Art Cache is empty? If you can't see it, you must enable hidden files. How are you looking for the info, and where are you finding it?
