Since I installed the meta software, thousands of files named fba_ads* have been created on the c: drive, they are created over and over again as I delete them, what is the cause and how do I prevent it?

Its an old permanent bug that they arent fixing.

This was advised by a user:

Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-remote-desktop

Delete or rename what's inside that folder - namely RemoteDesktopCompanion.exe

 

Unfortunately the official soluition provided is to delete their system files as found by users, but remember this is Facebook.
