Windows 7 Errors on other partitions

[Unimatrix013]

Hi

Apologies if this has been mentioned before, however I installed Build 7057 on a partitioned drive, install went fine however all the other partitions have had a folder created in them called $inplace.~tr\machine\data and all folders with their have been moved under the that folder. The original folder structures still exist but without the data. Can anyone tell me what the $inplace.~tr folderis and how to remove it.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi Again

Sorry to waste people's time, found the fix on Microsoft Knowledge base, problem caused by changing the paths of folders in Vista.

regards

It's great to hear that you managed to find the solution to the issue you were facing with the $inplace.~tr folder on your partitions. In case anyone else comes across a similar problem, the $inplace.~tr folder is typically associated with Windows upgrade installations. During the upgrade process, Windows might create this folder to store data temporarily while transitioning to the new version. If you need to remove the $inplace.~tr folder, it's advisable to follow Microsoft's recommendations or steps outlined in the Knowledge Base article you found. These articles usually provide specific guidance on how to safely address such issues without causing any unintended consequences on your system. If you ever have more questions or need further assistance in the future, feel free to ask!
