Just noticed a file in my C drive called "bfd6ee28c62392d12fcf924e7d6056cd" and inside is a text document called "msxml4-KB927978-enu" and below is a brief explanation of what it is filled with. I'm not sure what it is but it doesn't look good, I don't want to just delete it - anyone seen this before so I know what to do?

It's a temporary folder created by a Microsoft update patch, probably automatically downloaded by Windows Update.

That is from a Microsoft update file. The giveaway is the KB number. If you go to Microsoft Update, and check your update history, you will see a record of KB927978 being downloaded and installed, along with any and all other updates you installed.

Yes its part of the microsoft update system. I think the KB927978 gives it away. Im sure you can look this up on the microsoft site.It will tell you what it is.

This file is a .txt file. That means it is small. But if you really need the disk space, or you are just a neat freak, contact Microsoft Tech Support and ask them if the file is critical.

send it to your recyle bin , but keep it there before deleting , make sure that everything runs ok on your computer for a while, if everything seems fine without this strange file then you can delete it with no worries, if you have placed it in your recycle bin you can always restore if needed.

honestly what i understand is which you may desire to first decrypt all your archives and then save them in yet another partition like D(say) . next you may desire to proceed for a sparkling installation on Cchronic.

I had the same thing. It is nonessential so i removed it with a shift-delete.

That is an installation log. I would recommend keeping it.
