Empty folders left behind on Recording drive (1 Viewer)

[vvulture]

Hey guys,
I've just noticed that there are lots and lots of empty folders left behind on my recording hard drive, even after the shows have been deleted.
Is this normal ?

I'm using MP 1.1.0 final .

cheers

Really ? No one knows ?

Guess it must be an isolated case....

It's the same for me. I use a third party program once or twice a month that removes empty directories.

Thx for the info, however the author makes it clear that the software does not support Vista or 7.
Also, he has not updated it since 2007.

It has been working for me on Windows 7 x32, but YMMV.

Just please be careful, it is much better to have few left over folders than some non-empty folders getting removed (we have had that at some point in the past ).
