I386 folder ... What is it?
Hello :) ,
In my root directory (in Win XP) there exists a folder named I386. Please tell me what that folder represents and why it is there.
Thank You,
Don :)

ConsultDon,
The I386 folder on your hard disk may be there to expedite access to Windows XP system files. It can be used to install Windows components, run System File Checker, or similar tasks without requiring the user to insert the Windows XP CD. If your system is configured to do this, the value for SourcePath in your registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup will be C:\.
