Fresh installations of QGIS 3.0.x systematically create a "palettes" folder in c:/ on Windows. Even if you delete it, it gets recreated after every restart/reinstall of QGIS.

Any trick to get rid of this folder once and for good? Or at least to change the path in which it is created?

  • I have not experienced this same issue, and I manage QGIS installations on about two dozen Windows machines. Is your installation from the standalone installer or OSGEO4W?

It was reported the issue as a bug and it was fixed in QGIS 3.2 before. Bug report #19534

Best action would be to file a bug report at:

https://issues.qgis.org/projects/qgis/issues/

Once you have an account use the "New Issue" tab.
