What is this? I did a complete re-format because I did not know where this folder came from. After the re-format the only program I have installed is Rift and now this file has returned. I want to know what the hell this is. Its not even in the Rift folder and it has very suspicious content in it.

I want a Rift employee to address this.

This is what is in one of the folders...

It's obviously hex but it's not an md5 hash, nor does it convert to anything coherent.

I have no idea what it could be because, while it's definitely hex, the entire thing isn't base 16 (10 groups of 2 characters).

That makes sense then.

Obviously this is Trion's fault. They're in collusion with Microsoft to create temp folders on your hard drive for Windows Updates.


I love the fact that you used the actual folder name for the thread title. ;)


As a previous poster linked, these folders are created by Windows when running Updates. Sometimes they don't get properly deleted. You can delete that folder with no ill effects. (Or at least I haven't encountered any)

I think I'm more impressed with the fact that you haven't seen them before. I saw them constantly in XP and semi rarely in Vista and 7.

The OP has got to be a troll post, especially when they've put:

Its not even in the Rift folder and it has very suspicious content in it.

I want a Rift employee to address this.

And then you post details about one of the files quoting Microsoft's T&C's....

Seriously OP, think about it for a minute.

The details you have posted should be pretty good indicators that in all probability Trion have nothing to do with that file / folder. So demanding a "Rift employee" address this is quite ridiculous.

I'm not sure whether to believe this post or not. They're capable of formatting and reinstalling Windows but have never seen system folders?

So how do you play Rift without Windows or any other programs installed?

ohh yeah....FIX THIS TRION!
