Hi Carl,

Sorry to get back to you so late, I thought I send a reply two days ago.  This 
is not unexpected behavior with the localization perspective.  The directories 
are benign, they'll just have to sit there until I can release a working 16.2.2 
Windows client.  I checked our cloud server but did not find any orphaned 
directories on our end.
