I never remember having seen such folder.

Having been doing Windows development since Windows 3.0.

I have been hit by such errors, which on my case were caused by .exe installers.

It is hidden+system, owned by builtin\Administrators and competes with WinSxS, who will take most of your diskspace.

I stand corrected. All those years without noticing it. :\
