I had two separate Win-XP systems (separately bootable in the boot menu).
So, now I'm cleaning up the 2nd one (to get back to just one system).
And, I've removed it from BOOT.INI, etc, and I've managed to delete
ALMOST everything from that sub-tree.
(It was named C:\WINDOWS, but I've renamed it to C:\BROKEN_WINDOWS.
The good system is over in C:\WINXP.)
The file that defies being deleted is:
C:\broken_windows\Temp\hsperfdata_SYSTEM\3224
and I've used the utility 'attrib' to remove all the special 'S','R','H'
bits
off of this sub-tree. But the bottom-most file named '3224' just WILL
NOT DELETE.
What's the trick? (Or, is this file somehow super-important?)
I've always THOUGHT is was allowable to delete this unwanted
system-trees entirely.
TIA...
