Sup /g/, IT guy here. Has anything bad ever come of deleting the folder %appdata%? I'm about to backup a guy's user folder and the vast majority of his data is in appdata. I'm probably going to delete it either way, but I'd like to know if there's anything worth salvaging.

You're fucking retarded.
craft a gui to track its ip before you run rm -r on that directory senpai
you never know what firewall ports that might use tcp to escape into the dark web through
>>54345837
Why don't you delete it and find out?
>>54345899
Well now that's not very constructive
>>54345919
You fell into the buzzword bucket and came out the other side.
>>54345923
this is likely what will happen
>>54345919
Better make sure that gui's written in visual basic

Install adobe reader, idiot
>>54345837
What exactly are you trying to accomplish anon?
I think the worst that can happen is the user account will be fucked.
You should create a user account with nothing in it and delete it and find out for yourself.

I don't want to backup all of his data (600gb+) if the vast majority of it (500gb) is inside appdata
>>54345949
You could just tell me what it's for.
>>54346001
No. How about you google it, you mong
>>54345837
You Know ... you are retarded !
appdata is where data for apps is stored. Deleting if will not affect Windows but it will fuck every non-default program installed on the system.

This. Don't forget to install Google Ultron.
>>54346035

>>54346035
>>54346050

Rip anons career

Dude you could have gotten results by Googling "appdata" much more quickly and it would have saved you looking like a complete ass.
Seriously though, stop calling yourself "IT guy" and instead, "average user who has the wrong job" because you're computer illiterate.
Seriously, "IT guy", you couldn't think to run a quick Google search on something as common as the appdata folder?

>IT guy
are you all this retarded?

So this is the power of the H1B visa...
