After installing a new PBI On-prem data GW 14.16.6549.2 junk files and folder a created on the C-drive
Example of folders names:
+360YjLX+XPUzmDSeJ+tr8t3XOXDiJvuh0OYpY69Bw=
+LdWMP+iqbr+5doyd1DZiiFYd1OknhyH6F1m4YyHoo=
+LtLM+aswqVWoa85K8onvUPgm78aexj4gx9VzlwGCM=
and so on.
About 10-20 new folders are created every day, and I really have to concentrate when cleaning them out so that the windows folder among others do not get removed!
Within the folders, I find the exact same structure:
Index - empty folder
Temp - empty folder
Cache.Key - file
I have two other gateway installations NOT doing this, and I cant find anything in the logs explaining why those folders are created. I know it is the GW creating them because file owner is local account "PBIEgwService".
Fist step would of course be to reinstall the gw but it runs a bounch data sources in a global company with a number of credentials, so the task of re-installing is quite excensive. And so I dont really like to do it if unnessesary.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I have also installed version 14.16.6614.5 and junk folders are no longer being created. The issue has been fixed in this version.
