I suspect it may be part of the FSX SDK I tried to install. It bombed just
after starting it so I assumed nothing had happened. Why it decided on the
external drive is a puzzle.

 

Is anyone else using the SDK?

No Idea, not part of either FS9/FSX install. Could try moving them off the
external drive and seeing if it has any effect of either sim, or disconnect
the drive temporarily.

I have never installed either sim with an external drive connected, but
cannot understand an uncommanded copy, sure it is not a copy command from
the drive, some have an autobackup software, which I disable anyway.

The FS install seems to be going OK so far with both FSX and FS9 now on my
E: drive. Both added files to the Roaming folder (as expected) but one of
them seems to have copied files direct to my external drive - uncommanded I
might add. I can't see why it did this.

 

The files are quite a specific  group. There's an Install.exe, a bunch of
DLL's a VC_RD.cab file and a VC_RED.msi file. 

 

Has anyone come across these and know what they are for?
