What is the SLDWORKS.exe.hdmp files about?

  1. Hi all,

    Does anyone know what these huge 1GB files named "SLDWORKS.exe.hdmp"
    are for?

    They get created on my hard drive in a folder that is not controlled by
    the SW file location settings:
    C:\Documents and Settings\me\Local Settings\Temp\WER05d7.dir00
    C:\Documents and Settings\me\Local Settings\Temp\WER05f7.dir00
    C:\Documents and Settings\me\Local Settings\Temp\WER03e7.dir00
    ......

    They seem to hang about forever.

    Any harm in deleting?

    Regards,

    BB

    I guess that the "hdmp" is abbreviation for "heap dump".
