    I have this file with the name 3c251559722a51339aab61e3f2located in the c directory. I have a feeling its just a temp folder created for unzipping driver/chipset stuff. Is it safe to delete?

    Contents of the folder are amd64 and i386, both of which contain the same set of files.

    Service pack files.

    You should not delete if you ever need to uninstall
