Unused DLL's Keep Coming Back! |
|---|
| message from John L. Buchanan on 1 Jun 2004 |
I have a simple program (DLL Archive) that checks for unused DLL files and
archives them. And, each time I run it it says "xpsp2res.dll" is not being
c:\windows\system32\dllcache\
c:\windows\system32\
Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.

Hi,
Very likely it is a protected file, which the system recreates after
being deleted drawing from the copies in the dllcache folder.
Now if it is a system file it must be because it is important to the
system. Though you haven't used it, that doesn't mean you won't need
it in the future, to install something, whatever.
Hope this helps

I have a simple program (DLL Archive) that checks for unused DLL files and
archives them. And, each time I run it it says "xpsp2res.dll" is not being
used by any program. So, I have the program archive it. However, the next
time I run the program it's back in the following two locations:
c:\windows\system32\dllcache c:\windows\system32
Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.

I have tried analogX's dll archive. The problem with it is it looks for dll's that have not been used and list's them, however this does not mean that they are not system .dll's and may be required at some time in the future for a funtion you have not used yet.The reason it keeps reappearing is most likely that it's is an XP .dll and is reinstalled and each boot. It is best not to delete these,uninstall .dll archive.

Part of Windows Update. And it gets reloaded each time the update runs...
