Patch tool not doing cleanups

Post by EtsDriver »

Hi!

When we install patches, the automatic tool extracts patch files stuff to the C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\FlowcodeV7PatchExtractionDir\ folder... The size of those files is sometimes pretty significant, and seems that no matter of restarts or FC7 runs, the folder keeps files inside it (until new patch tool overwrites them). This could be improved so the tool would do the cleanup after installing the patch automatically?
Ill just keep the good work up!

Hi

Flowcode isn't the only culprit that does this. It would be nice if software could do the housekeeping once installed though.

I use a program called ccleaner, which for its basic version is free, I've used the pro version ($20) of it for a few years now and it works great for cleaning up the internet cache, and registry etc.
Works with everything upto Windows 10
1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !

We are not too happy with the installation process of Flowcode and are evaluating other tools at the moment. Hopefully we'll have a better solution in place in the future.
