Priority: P3
Bug ID: 120113
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Microsoft VC++ runtime pollutes the disk
Severity: normal
Issue Type: DEFECT
Classification: Application
OS: Windows, all
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: AOO 3.4.0
Component: ui
Product: installation
After installed OOO 3.4 i find the following 'leftovers' on my Win7 x64 box:
1) installation folder on desktop
2) a folder and bunch of files in the root folder
d:\CurrentVersion\
d:\install.exe
d:\install.res.1028.dll
d:\install.res.1031.dll
d:\install.res.1033.dll
d:\install.res.1036.dll
d:\install.res.1040.dll
d:\install.res.1041.dll
d:\install.res.1042.dll
d:\install.res.2052.dll
d:\install.res.3082.dll
d:\eula.1028.txt
d:\eula.1031.txt
d:\eula.1033.txt
d:\eula.1036.txt
d:\eula.1040.txt
d:\eula.1041.txt
d:\eula.1042.txt
d:\eula.1049.txt
d:\eula.2052.txt
d:\eula.3082.txt
d:\globdata.ini
d:\install.ini
d:\vcredist.bmp
d:\install.res.1049.dll
d:\VC_RED.cab
d:\VC_RED.MSI
While 1) is a nuisance - it is at least easily visible and easy to delete, and
installer told user about it during install (at least in Custom mode).
But 2) is unexpected, not so easy to spot, harder to delete (might need UAC
escalation, that regular user might be hard to obtain). And it just looks
rather shabby practice to pollute root folder with temporary files, that had to
be contained and had to be placed in Temp folder, and had to be deleted after
use.
