1210532 2011-06-19 06:11:00 Hi there

Im trying to delete a number of duplicate folders in C:\ drive, which were cryptically named but now renamed 1001, 1002, etc.

All appears to have identical structure with folders named
1025
1028
1029 etc

Ive made a batch file but I see every time it trys it says Files in use. All? folders have two files
eula
HotFixInstallerUI.dll

The eula file size is the only obvious change in each folder.

Thanks in anticipation.
