Can I remove this strange directory

I have a directory in c:\ who a 22 name characters (numbers and letters).  It contains two subdirectories "amd64" and "i386".  I do not know how the files in those subdirectories, but I suspect they are drivers.  Remove the directory harm my system?

This is probably a temporary folder created during a Windows update that was supposed to be automatically deleted.  Just delete the directory manually (if you can; you may have 'ownership' of this first or tool to use a third party "unlocker").

See, for example, the 'Number 1' article in this MS KB--> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951847/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0

IIRC, this directory is placed at the root of all volume has more free space.  In your situation, it is C:\, but if you find the number, you can find other similar directories in other partitions.

  • I blocked some photos in facebook by accident, the toddler got click happy. How can I remove this block in some photos?

    I blocked some photos in facebook by accident, the toddler got click happy. How can I remove this block in some photos?

    With Facebook on display, click the button to the site identity (for more details on what is, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button) and then on more information. This will open the page info dialog box.

    First, select the permissions tab, make sure that 'Load the Images' is set to allow (default selection should work as well)

    Then select the media tab, and then click the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll the list. If any element has the option 'Images of block of (field name)' selected, deselect the option.

    This should hopefully solve your problem, but see also https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Images+or+animations+do+not+show

    Some add-ons can also block images, for example, if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block images.

  • 5740 HP Office Jet: OMG! I am trying to scan/email of my 5740 and he wants a PIN! How can I remove this option?

    It's the stoopidist option, I ran everywhere!

    How can I remove this?

    Hi Adeline1,

    Have you tried 1234 or 0000?  Everyone loves these pin codes!  I'm kidding - bad joke.

    I have not used this printer, but you should be able to change the PIN code or delete the account and start again.  To do this:

    To change the account settings
    1. Press Scan and then tap email.
    2. on the display control panel, select the account you want to modify and press on change.
    3. Select the setting that you want to change and follow the prompts on the screen.
    ● Auto-login
    ● Store Email
    ● Remove the list
    ● Change your CODE
    ● Remove the account

    You can try in first 'change PIN'.  If you are prompted to enter a new PIN, then you can try to delete the account.  I do not know if invites you to insert the PIN as well.  If so, let me know and I'll see what I can dig up.  If you know your PIN and don't want to get in, you might be able to put in place using the "Auto-login" option only.
