I installed a script that came with the TechRepublic email.
The script makes a new folder with the date as the folder name everytime I use file explorer.

This was not the expected behavior.

How does one remove the script?

Thanks,
Ralph

Sorry, I do not have any reference to it.

I am just stuck with the result of installing it.

It sounded good from the description.
I read that when you wanted to make a new folder you would have the "option" to have it named with the date.

As it actually worked every time I tried to open a existing folder in File Explorer a new folder, with the date as name, would be made in the folder I was trying to open.

There was nothing in Control Panel Add/REmove programs.

I searched the Registry for the application name, found it and removed it from the registry. This killed the program but now when I click on a folder in File explorer I can not open the folder and a folder Search screen pops up.

Since I got the app from TechRepublic's email I thought maybe somebody would know something about it.

I think it was last Spring when I installed it.
