These are pdbs that help you step through the MFC code. This is being put in here by VS and more specifically the VC++ installation which would be a part of your VS install.
PDBs: What is the C:\Windows\Symbols\dll directory?

Question
I know about debugging symbols (PDBs), the MS Symbol Server and the caching of symbols.
What I do not get is which symbols (by whom) go into the C:\Windows\Symbols\dll
directory. It doesn't seem C:\Windows\Symbols\dll
has anything to do with MSSS caching.
Example, my version of this directory contains:
C:\Windows\Symbols\dll>dir
21.02.2013 16:47 <DIR> .
21.02.2013 16:47 <DIR> ..
18.02.2011 16:18 3.854.336 atl100.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 18:23 25.300.992 mfc100.i386.pdb

18.02.2011 18:05 13.824 Microsoft.Workflow.ExpressionEvaluation.pdb
18.02.2011 16:18 3.755.008 msvcp100.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 16:18 4.377.600 msvcp100d.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 16:17 8.875.008 msvcr100.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 16:18 7.900.160 msvcr100d.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 18:26 1.699.840 vcomp100.i386.pdb
18.02.2011 18:26 1.798.144 vcomp100d.i386.pdb
But no other files, although this machine has both VS2005 and VS2010 installed. I always thought the files get put there by VS, but since the ...80...
versions are missing (which I have on other machines), it seems VS2005 didn't put them there.
