| 241988 | 2004-06-05 05:27:00 | That's a lot of MB sitting in temp files merlin. One looks like a Nero backup and the others are setup files. I think you can safely wack them but make sure you can restore them before getting rid of them for good. On Win2k I get the odd files that aren't defragmented. There are supposed to be third party tools around that do a better job than windows defrag and disc tools but, I don't use any so can't comment. Cheers Murray P |

| 241989 | 2004-06-05 09:04:00 | You don't really need the files in your Temp folder so they can be biffed. It doesn't hurt to run defrag once or twice more either if you want to, just for fun. ;-) | Fire-and-Ice (3910) | ||
| 241990 | 2004-06-05 10:22:00 | www.sysinternals.com Contig is a single-file defragmenter that attempts to make files contiguous on disk. Its perfect for quickly optimizing files that are continuously becoming fragmented, or that you want to ensure are in as few fragments as possible. |
