What is this file $Patchcache$ on a Windows 2003 Server. I found that this file is over 600megs big and I would love to know what its for. If anyone knows what this file is please write me back.

MSP patches for Visual Studio and .NET Framework 2.0 (and perhaps other products that use MSP patches) place data here. You can delete the folder, but if you ever need to repair the installation that was "patched", it may fail.

Thank you for letting me know. That must be true because I do have Visual Studio and .NET Framework 2.0 loaded on that server.
