Windows 11 home ver 25H2 Build 26200.7840
Dear experts,

I have discovered the folder “AdvertisingPopup” in path C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\AdvertisingPopup, in both my Windows 10 and my Windows 11 laptops. I have looked in properties for this folder, and the “group or user name” includes system, my windows account for the notebook and the administrator account for the notebook. my Windows 10 laptop has never had any easeUs application.

II have not found the signature of any developer in the folders.

Is it a normal component of Windows?, can I safely delete it?

Thanks

I found this on a search for "AdvertisingPopup":

According to that message it would have to do with the application EaseUS Todo Backup.

The only 'problem' with the found result is that it is written by a commercial Spyware remover company, so better not to click any unknown links on that page...

If you would like to search for other results, search with "AdvertisingPopup", where the quotation marks are essential.

Difficult to say. It may be Easus, as above, but then it my be something else. It's a fairly obvious name that anyone may have chosen to use.

What's in the folder? Anything, or is it empty?
It's probably safe to delete, but may well come back again.

EasyUS put its own "AdvertisingPopup" folder in another path, it is an additional folder. That one Ijnow. I am asking about the folders "AdvertisingPopup" independent from Easyus, that I got in any case,in path C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\AdvertisingPopup

That might be useful to know.

You always could rename the folder into something else, like "MaybedeletedAdvertisingPopup" and see if any app is having troubles, or possibly some app might make that folder again. That's what I mostly do with unknown folders that bother me.

When you put a shortcut to "C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\" on your desktop, you could easily in a regular way look if the folder is made again when you start some app (and especially if you start EasyUS).

Rename the folder you listed above... just the AdvertisingPopup folder and see if it affects anything.

C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\AdvertisingPopup


Rename it to... OldAdvertisingPopup then reboot the computer.
If it breaks something, you can just rename it back to AdvertisingPopup


If it doesn't break anything, then you know you can delete it.

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?
EasyUS put its own "AdvertisingPopup" folder in another path, it is an additional folder

All I could find is a possible ad entry due to using free software, is your EasyUS the free version?

In one notebook I never had any easyus sofyware and I still got the folder in the indicated path


What else are you running that would cause that to be created? If you’re bypassing any software with patches, then maybe I could understand it, otherwise I don’t see how this is possible especially on multiple machines.

If not that, I can’t see how this happens. Perhaps other free software outside of EasyUS

Do you have a list of software that you use the free versions of?
You can delete the folders but they may get recreated by whatever is creating them.

    …still on a horse.
I am asking about the folders not created by easyUS
In one notebook I never had any easyus sofyware and I still got the folder in the indicated path
As both @Ghot in #10 and me in #7 mentioned, you could try to rename the folder and see if it's causing an error or if that folder is put back on your system. You did not answer to my question if that folder is empty or not either.

If you don't want to perform any proposed testing method, how would it be possible to advise you.
As you may have noted, (until now) no one else has this AdvertsingPopup folder in his/her system...

Sorry, but I'm out here.
