    Well its interesting that no one has any idea on how to get windows to remove these pending renamed files. I thought at least one or two folks might. Anyhow I think that when windows installs the next updates, after installing them THEN TrustedInstaller will clean them up automatically. I just didn't want to wait. I've only listed 2 problems on here since upgrading to Win 10 Pro, and so far nobody has had any fixes. Guess my questions are just too hard to answer. :)
