A large number of temporary files have been found. (246 MB - Windows/IE only)


I’m using Microsoft Edge.   I’m not using Internet Explorer.   This message is showing up as a Webroot System Analyzer warning in yellow.

What can I do to fix this?

Even though IE has been deactivated in the latest Windows 10 Updates:  https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-edge-update-starts-disabling-internet-explorer-11-today/ It still shows that there are files from IE so It’s a Windows issue also I tried to open the IE exe file and it opens Microsoft Edge! On Windows 11 I don’t know but I assume IE is not even listed!.

Hello @JJK1234567 

 

System Analyzer is just a basic tool so don't take the info it gives with any concern, personally I don't use it and don't know if it's ever been updated over the years.

 

Run system optimizer and if need be download the free version of CCleaner and run that.

 

Thanks,
