    Right. This happens every so often and fills up my hard-drive, and every so often I have to delete all of the data, and hope it doesn't f**k up Windows somehow. This time, it's 12 times replicated, and I've no idea why it does it. Running Windows 7.

    C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\Application Data

    Oh, and all the Application Data folders show a creation date of 11/01/2012 22:48
    /edit Deleted the 468MB file, and it's 11 copies, and I only get 468MB more space :/

    Deleted one "application data", somehow deleted them all. F**k!

    /edit 2; seems I've only deleted c:\users\all users\Application Data so maybe it's not all bad? Seems it's "inaccessible" as opposed to "doesn't exist", though.
    C:\Users\*****\AppData is still here.

    Hrm. Possibly reboot and hope for the best :pac:
