What does the found.000 folder contain?

  

Do you know what the found.000 folder is for? It is estimated that everyone has not gone deeper into it. The system is more than just this folder. System folder does not know what the role is, of course, users directly ask:

Guangdong friends ask: my computer sometimes has a name in the root directory of the C drive or D drive The folder found.000 has some files with the suffix CHK. There are a lot of strange files starting with fff under c:windows, and the size is all 0 bytes. What files are these? Can you delete them?

Answer: Some files with the suffix CHK in the found.000 folder are after you use the "Disk Defragmenter" to defragment your hard drive. The resulting "recovered cluster recovery file". There are a lot of files starting with fff under c:windows which are generated by the Mdm.exe (Machine Debug Manager) program. The main job of Mdm.exe is to debug the application software. During the troubleshooting process, some temporary files will be generated. These files are not automatically cleared when the operating system is shut down, so the strange files at the beginning of these fffs Some files in the found.000 folder with the suffix CHK are useless junk files, which can be arbitrarily deleted without adversely affecting the system.

But as long as Mdm.exe exists in the system, then the strange file starting with fff may be generated again. You can stop the system from running Mdm.exe to completely delete the strange files starting with fff as follows: First press “Ctrl+Alt+Del” in the pop-up "Close Program" window to select “ Mdm”, press the “End Task” button to stop the running of Mdm.exe in the background, and then rename Mdm.exe (in the C:WindowsSystem directory) to Mdm.bak. Run the msconfig program and uncheck the "Machine Debug Manager" option in the startup page. This will not allow Mdm.exe to start automatically, then click the “OK" button to end the msconfig program and restart the computer. In addition, if you use IE 5.X, it is recommended to disable script calls (click <; Tools & Rarr; Internet Options & Rarr; Advanced & Rarr; Disable Script Calls & rdquo;), so that you can avoid the strange files starting with fff.

This way of asking questions and answers allows everyone to understand what is the folder of found.000. The content inside is actually nothing. You can take a closer look and even delete the contents directly. It doesn't matter. However, it is better to note that it is better to pull up the roots.
