      Depending on who made the computer the Windows Folder in Caps is the recovery.

      As for Logs this is part of Windows and it is doing what it was designed to do keeping a Log of all programs that are activated when you start the OS.

      A link to visit and the answer to your query

      I had two windows folders before I installed Ultimate. I had two window folders as long as I can remember, they probably came this way. It’s the Gateway 6831-fx along the way. I can’t find an explanation for this anywhere online, and since the folders are obviously the same, I will definitely not delete one. I couldn’t find an explanation or fix this by searching; there are people discussing other duplicate word folders with different content, but no one I can find with the same “windows” and “Windows”. Then someone suggested me to read about this type of queries on http://www.wowprivacy.com and surprisingly it was helpful so do visit it once it might help you as well.
