Greetings,
I just installed PowerChute Personal Edition 3.0.2 onto Windows 7 Home Premium, and I noticed that the following files were installed into %userProfile% (c:\Users\Shane\):
dotnetfolder.txt
en_res.dll
es_res.dll
fr_res.dll
grm_res.dll
it_res.dll
jp_res.dll
mfc80u.dll
Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest
Microsoft.VC80.MFC.manifest
msvcr80.dll
PCPE Setup.exe
PCPE_3.0.1.msi
pt_res.dll
ResourceReader.dll
ru_res.dll
zh_res.dll
What are these files for? It is very strange that they would be installed into the user's directory. Are they safe to delete?
Thanks,
Shane.

Hi Shane,
Yes, it's fine. Noted in the bottom of the knowledge base I pasted, it says -> NOTE: The removal of the files will not affect the performance of the application and can be removed at the users discretion. These files are not harmful and do not require removal.

Sorry, I didn't get an email when you replied.
So, it is safe to delete these files?
Thanks,
Shane.
