Defragmenter shows that I have a lot of disk space being taken up by a file that cannot be defragmented. I tried disk cleanup. I can't find this file to remove...
The Defragmenter report is:
Fragments of files in file size that cannot be defragmented
32 330 MB \Documents and Settings\Bill & LaVerne\Local Settings\Temp\~PST5291.tmp
I tried to find this file in order to remove it, but were unsuccessful. I have the configuration of the computer to make the "hidden files" visible. I searched all the temporary files by searching *.tmp and deleated all .tmp files that were more than 30 days old. I searched files with one of the components of the file listed but am not successfulin find the listed file.
Why can't I find this file?
Hi Steven,
I tried the program you recommended "Pagedefrag", but he did not find any fragmented junk files to be fixed.
However, I had another idea, I went into "the command prompt ", and progress through the file defragmentation report structure was first listed as the path of the fragmented files. After clicking on "command prompt " in the program lists, I used an old DOS command line: cd (change directory ) (for each step ) and the following file type listed since the path of the defrag report file until I came to the temp indicated as fragmented file. Then I typed del (space) and then pasted in the name of the file I wanted to delited "~ PST5291.tmp" and you press on [Enter] was deleted, and I was thrilled!
I delited the file in mode "command prompt " even if windows has not shown that there was!
Before I tried this, I got windows put in place a restore point in case where my new idea would cause a problem.
Oh, before I tried this, I also ran again disk cleanup and led also to search all *.tmp files.
Note: after you remove the ' ~ PST5291.tmp ' file, I ran again the defrag program with several additional fragmented files that cannot be defragmented reported! When I deleted them... According to the above method, I managed to free up enough disk space change free space of 13% to 34% of free space on the C: drive.
Quite impressive.
Can someone explain why windows program (search or windows explorer) cannot 'see' all these files and why 'disk cleanup' could not find and remove? They took almost 10 GIG of space!
Thank you

My attempt to update iPhoto which presents in the folder utility as having been obtained from Apple on the 19/04/13 is rejected w/notice that the update is not available for this Apple ID because it has been purchased by another user. How can I get the update?
There are some inconsistencies in your question:
1. If you do not have 10.11.4 then you can not possible be eager to download iPhoto 9.4.3 because it does not work on El Capitan. You'll need iPhoto 9.6.1.
2 - If you get the message that iPhoto was bought under another Apple ID then he leads us to ask if you have purchased your new iMac or used? Try to go on the App Store, sign out and then sign in with your Apple ID and see if you get the same message.
We are just so not the same page what system are you running? What version of iPhoto do you currently have? Have you bought the new iMac or used?

IMO, if you have Windows XP or a newer version of Windows, not worth obsessed during defragmentation.
That said, I offer the following comments:
- Files that start \System Volume Information\_restore {... are your system restore points. If things are running OK and you do not anticipate the need to restore to an earlier time, disable System Restore (which will delete all system restore points) and then turn it back on again. Or just run Disk Cleanup and use remove all but the last restore point.
- The \WINDOWS\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\G7HWHKBP\iTunes[1].msi file looks like a file cache of remains of Internet Explorer 5. In any case, it is a setup of iTunes and you can safely remove. In general, you can safely remove all in C:\Windows\Temp
- I guess you kept all of these files in e-mail Netscape 7 for some reason, but if they had just neglected when you moved from Netscape 7 for any email application you use today, you can remove these establishments.
- The normal Windows Defragmenter cannot defragment various system files, including the page file and the MFT, which are quite highly fragmented in your system. I think that for this reason there is not enough contiguous space on your hard disk to defragment most of the other files in the list even if you have more than 9 GB of free space.
To defragment the paging file, you can disable (or very small), restart and then set it to "system managed size". To do this
- Make a right click my computer and select Properties
- Click on the "Settings" button in the box 'Performance '.
- Click on the "Advanced" tab and the button 'Edit' under 'virtual memory '.
- Click on "No paging file" and the "Set" key
- OK your way out and restart
- Defragmentation and then go back and put the pagefile "system managed size".
A better approach, however, would be to use (free) PageDefrag, which defragments non only the pagefile, but both the Windows registry files.
Microsoft has apparently made a utility that will defragment the MFT (on the restart), but you must call customer service to get it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.Aspx?scid=kb;en-us;320397 I used not this utility and cannot give you any information about it beyond what is in the Article.
Some commercial defragmenters defragment the MFT (on the restart). If they have trial versions, trial versions may include this feature, but I don't know.

Where can I find this list of the subset of the API that supports workers?
Workers of the ActionScript (concurrency) supports a subset of ActionScript APIs. For example, you can access StageVideo or Stage3D leave within a worker.
I expect to find this list of supported APIs (or the list of APIs which is excluded) to:
http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/ActionScript/3/Flash/system/worker.htm l
But I the have not found here. (I asked this question in the forum of Flash Player:
)Where can I find this list shows you what ActionScript API are not supported within a worker?
Release notes for 3.4 had a list. See page 4, 'non-functional API.
Although I guess that's probably subject to change from one version to the other, so why they list in the documentation anywhere. Check 'isSupported' or the equivalent on a given API is probably the best way to be sure. Also see the following section "behaviorial changes".
