Hi,
I just found a seemingly random folder on my D drive (named b0e04637d5add49a03). After showing hidden files I found a MATLAB Traceability File with the name $shtdwn$.req. What is it? And can I get rid of it without breaking anything and if so how? Because although I am the administrator I can't delete the file or folder. If I try to delete the entire folder as administrator it says that I need authoriziation from"SYSTEM". I use MATLAB R2021a.
Thanks in advance

Hi Otto,
As per my understanding, the folder ‘b0e04637d5add49a03’ you are referring to is a temporary folder generally created during Windows updates and is unrelated to MATLAB.
The folder automatically gets removed after running the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool.
Please refer to the following answer available on Microsoft’s Community Answers.
