Why VPS update is creating a new folder?

Why VPS update (manual) is creating a new folder and not deleting it after the process is finished?

C:\TEMP_av_proI.tm~a02616

Same question here… slight difference in numbers, but I guess that’s normal… I also think, it should be just temporary folder and erased after update attempt…

It’s either an error in the current build or a bad design -imho.

avast! should always create temporary files/folders adhering to the %temp% system variable.

Many XP users utilizing NTFS file system have locked down security on their drives to explicitly probhibit creation of files/folders in drive root folders.

I’m also have this…

OK, it was a bug… the problem should be fixed in the next update.
