Copy the text below, between the lines, to Notepad and save it to your
Desktop as "Cleantempfiles.bat" but without those quote marks.
---------------------------------------------------------
del c:\*.tmp
del %temp%\*.tmp /f
del %windir%\prefetch\*.*
del %windir%\temp\*.* /f
del C:\documents and settings\*\local settings\temp\*.* /f
----------------------------------------------------------
Now double click on the .bat file on your Desktop and answer "Yes" to each
question to allow the batch to run. When finished the command prompt window
will disappear. Reboot at this point and delete the .bat file on your Desktop.
Next, click start-->Choose Run in the Start Menu and type or copy and paste
the following in the Run box and press ENTER:
cleanmgr /sageset:1
What you're doing here is setting up a cleaning profile for Disk Cleanup to
use later on. When you type the above, a dialog box will appear with a list
of junk file types that you can select for removal. You'll notice, you have
more options to choose from here than you would if you were to just open up
your cleanmgr from the "All Programs-->Accessories-->Tools" menu. Select
which options you want to clean up by putting a check mark in each one but Do
not put a check in the box for "Compress old files".
- Click OK after making your choices.
Now, copy the text below (between the lines) to Notepad and save it to your
Desktop as "CleanUpandDefrag.bat" but again, without those quote marks:
--------------------
@echo off
cleanmgr /sageset:1
cleanmgr /sagerun:1
defrag c:
@exit
--------------------
Now, double click on the .bat file on your Desktop and click "OK".
When the clean up and defrag complete, reboot your computer. You can save
that .bat file and double click on it about once a week to run your automated
clean up and defrag with one click so-to-speak.
