The temp folder is a prime target for malware for several reasons. First, malware is often attached to or embedding in legitimate programs and applications. A program and application may function as intended, but executing it may create malware in the form of a temporary file.
The temporary files generated by Visual Studio after creating and running an ASP.NET application reside in: %SYSTEMROOT%\Microsoft.NET\Framework[64]\<vernum>\Temporary ASP.NET Files folder. The folders and files under this folder can be removed with no harm to your development computer.
Antivirus software must be installed on all domain controllers in the enterprise.
For Chrome: Open Google Chrome, click the 3 dots at the top right corner click Settings, then on the left pane click Extensions, on the Extensions page look for anything related to the virus then click Remove.
We are using Visual Studio 2008 as our primary development IDE. Our security team has set up McAfee to scan files in our \Local Settings\Temp folder. Unfortunately VS uses this directory during code builds which is slowing the developers down. We've reached an impasse with the security team on this, and wonder if anyone knows of a configuration setting in VS where we could change the folder to where those temporary files are written.
