UKLog.dat file

Looking through the forum I have noticed that many others have had this problem!

Two days ago a popup gave me a warning about space management that was being switched on.

Surprised at this I checked my C:\ drive to see what was going on and it was nearly full. On double clicking my C:\ drive I noticed a strange file entitled UKLog.dat, that was increasing in size as I was watching it.

I ran AVG Antivirus to scan the whole computer, and nothing was found. I also ran Malwarebytes premium checking for Rootkits and again nothing was found.

I then restarted my PC in safe mode and was able to delete it without any ill effects. But directly I restarted in normal mode, it was back eating up space.

I have tried deleting programs to see if I can find the offending program, but as yet no luck.

To add to the mystery,the first time I noticed it, I double clicked the file and PhotoDirector 8 opened up, so I deleted that program thinking that may be the cause. but no I still haven't found where its from.

Please does anyone have any suggestions?

Many thanks.  Len

Yardımın için çok teşekkürler. Uklog. dat dosyası çeşitli anti virüs ve Malwarebytes çalıştırdıktan sonra bilgisayarımdan gitti. Hangisinin dosyayı temizlediğini gerçekten bilmiyorum ama şimdi gitti. Yardımınız için tekrar teşekkür ederim. ve İngiltere ve kendimden en iyi dileklerimle.

    Were you able to get rid of the uklog.dat file after running the Intel Driver & Support Assistant?  I'm hoping that fix works for more people than just me :)  Thanks!
