Question about Y_?????? trace files

[jcarbonell]

We have a SAP ERP 6.0 system runninng in Windows. I am checking the trace files in our system, and I have found that there are a lot of Y_??????. I have been looking for information about them, but I cannot find it. Does anyone know how and why these files are generated, and if I can safely delete them?

Thank you for your help,

Jose

Hi Jose,

Is the file called Y_18001 or Y_<number>. These are just Developer Trace files and you can safely delete those file.
