MSOCache folder?
I just reformatted my HD, installed XP Pro and Office
2003. Then noticed a folder named MSOCache. Because it uses the word "cache" in it, I'm wondering if it was a temporary folder used when I installed Office. Am I close? Is it necessary? Can it be safely deleted? Just wondering... Thanks in advance. Jerry |

Jerry,
For future updates to Office, this folder is best left intact on your system.

The MSOCache (MS Office Cache) folder is a part of the Local Installation Source (LIS) feature, new in Office 2003. http://support.microsoft.com/default...us;830168&FR=1 ======= "Jerry" wrote in message ...
