Re: Deleting "Software" file located on C:\WINDOWS\Repair\Software

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Deleting this file will not remove any quarantined virus files, and will
have an adverse effect (to put it mildly) on the stability of your servers.)

Your anti-virus software should provide you with an option to delete any
quarantined files using the anti-virus software interface; I wouldn't
recommend trying to delete anything manually.

Hello,

Over the past holidays, some of my servers had been infected with
Troj/ScriptDl-A virus. They have been quarantine, but I like to delete
them.

Any consequences of removing the "software" file in this
C:\WINDOWS\Repair\Software directory"?

Thanks so much.
Tnt
