A file called Program after repairs.
« on: February 19, 2013, 03:26:46 am »
I allowed tweaking.com all in one repair to run and fixthings. I rebooted my pc and got back into the desktop then a Popup came up. Some file rename thingy. I looked in root of C: drive and found a program with no file association call 'Program'. The popup wanted to rename it to Program1. I told it to ignore it and just deleted it. Rebooted it again and no pop up. Next time if I have to run again your tool I think it will come back. Any ideas? Hlep me please.  :confused:

I will see if I can replicate it, the program shouldn't be making any folders, so I will double check everything :-)

Found it. New log settings I made. If there is a space in the path it is creating that folder, which is safe to delete. This is because bat files dont like spaces and have to be closed with "

I will get an update out ASAP :wink:

yes!  This happened to me, as well.  I was asked to rename it Program1, which I did, and later found the file empty, on C:\.

I'll just delete the file and download the new version when it's available!

Thanks Shane.
