Hi guys, I'm having a strange problem that never occurred to me before. I clicked the pause button in my visual studio a couple of days ago and it threw some warning or error, I don't remember what it was, or what I clicked. Now there are a bunch of folders ending with PDB in my project, and my program's size got 4-5MB bigger. Anyone has any ideas what this is?

What you have is a bunch of Program Database Files as you see here:

I'm not sure why you got that particular set, though, as they are not normally included in project folders. The ones you got are for dlls that come with VS. They shouldn't be necessary in your project folder.
What is in those folders?
A bunch of pdb files of size varying from some KBs to some MBs. Anyway, my problem was something else not related to these files and I fixed it now. The pdb files are still there, I can't get rid of them, but I fixed the huge file size at least.Quote:
