Automap: Setup Temporary Directory Not Removed

WINDOWS

= SYMPTOMS =

When you install Microsoft Automap Road Atlas or Microsoft Automap Streets, if you run the Setup Help program, the temporary directory created by the Setup program is not removed after installation is completed.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Automap Road Atlas, version 4.0 and Microsoft Automap Streets, version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

= MORE INFORMATION =

The Setup temporary directory is not removed because Windows 95 Help creates hidden .GID files when Setup Help is started. Setup is unable to delete the temporary directory upon completion because it contains these hidden files.

This problem does not occur on systems running Microsoft Windows 3.1x.
