INFO: Cleaning up E-Prime Go temporary files [35545]

This article applies to:

E-Prime Go 1.0

Detail

Under normal Automated E-Prime Go operation, all data files are removed from the machine. Manual Mode will leave data files on the desktop.

A compatibility flag is set and can be deleted after each run if desired. This is located at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers".

In some instances, E-Prime Go may leave some temporary files located in the %temp% folder. Users may delete these files by navigating to %temp% in File Explorer and deleting the "epg" folder (e.g., C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Local\Temp).

Alternatively, you may use Command Prompt to quickly delete the files if they exist. To do so open Command Prompt by pressing Start and typing "cmd". Then type and enter:

• If exist %temp%\epg rd %temp%\epg /s /q
