Subject: Using Sysmon to track nuisance temp folders
Posted: 18 September 2014 at 2:22am
I checked another Windows 7 computer, and it also has this same issue, temporary folders filling up the %temp% folder with the same naming convention as in my first post. A log file indicates that "C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Installer\wlshim.dll" is starting "C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" and then not deleting its temporary folders. This started around the end of July on the second computer, so I wonder if a Windows update is responsible. Anyone else having the same issue?
