  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  No need to worry, we're here to help you and guide you in the right direction.

  The windows.old folder is the old system files. Be sure to copy all the files that you can out of the Windows.old folder before you delete it. Once deleted, they are gone. You must be logged in as an administrator to be able to do the steps.

  The Windows.old folder contains the following folders:

  • Windows
  • "Documents and Settings".
  • "Program Files."

  The Windows folder stores mainly programs and files that are required to run the previous version of Windows.

  The "Documents and Settings" folder stores mainly the 'My Documents' folder and the Favorites folder. In addition, the "Documents and Settings" folder stores the office files that have been used by the previous version of Windows.

  The "Program Files" folder stores mainly programs have been installed on the earlier version of Windows.

  There are two ways to delete the windows.old folder. Here is the simple step.

  Method 1: Delete the C drive.

  (a) open Windows Explorer, click computer.

  (b) select C drive and you will find the Windows.old folder.

  (c) make a right click on the folder and click Remove.

   

  Method 2: Remove the "Windows.old" folder using disk cleanup

  (a) open Disk Cleanup by clicking on the button Windows + C to open the bar of charms. Click on the charm of the Search .

  (b) type cleanmgr in Search Applications box in the right pane, and then click cleanmgr.exe (disk cleanup) in the left pane to open it.

  (c) If you are prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

  (d) in the Disk Cleanup dialog box, on the Disk Cleanup tab, click clean up system files.

  (e) If you are again prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

  (f) select the Previous Windows installations check box and the other check boxes for files that you want to remove, and then click OK.

  (g) in the message that appears, click delete files.

• How can I remove the Windows, "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer

  I use another software Photo and picture Windows and Fax Viewer interferes with my work with the other program. Therefore, I would like to remove the Windows, "Windows picture and Fax Viewer" program from my computer.

  Info for WIndows XP - Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  OK... but be careful... you'll lose thumbnails of photos in Windows Explorer...
  your 'My pictures' folder... for example... does not display photos.

  And... FWIW... WP & F Viewer is not a program... it's just a .dll file. Disabling
  the .dll file is basically identical to uninstall. (in this way... If you do not
  as the result... you can reactivate).

  But if "gone forever", that's what you prefer... just delete the shimgvw.dll file.

  Attention last... your thumbnails in the Explorer will be gone.

  How... Disable WP & F Viewer

  Click Start / run and enter the following command:

  Type or copy/paste...
  regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll
  (Yes, the space after the 2 and you is necessary)

  Press on... Come in...

  (You should see a dialog box indicating:)
  DllUnregisterServer in successful shimgvw.dll)

  How... Reactivate the WP & F Viewer

  Click Start / run and enter the following command:

  Type or copy/paste...
  regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll
  (Yes, the space after the 2 and space after that the i is necessary)

  Press on... Come in...

  You should see a dialog box stating:
  DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in successful shimgvw.dll

  To remove shimgvw.dll go to the following folder and do a right click Delete shimgvw.dll.

  C:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll

  If you can't find the path, you must go to...
  Button start / Control Panel / folder Options.
  See tab /... to check "Show hidden files and folders"...

• How can I remove the Windows Mail splash screen?

  How can I remove the start of Windows Mail from my computer screen?

  Try this:

  Go to this registry key:

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail

  Then, create a new DWORD entry and call NoSplash.  Then set the value to 1.

  That's how it worked in OE (see http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm) and it should work this way in WinMail.

• How can I delete old windows files that seem to occupy a large part of my hard drive. I use Vista Home. I have reininstalled OS but only saved the files I never cleaned up old windows.

  I use an older Dell that was handed to them. There are several problems with it and I finally reinstalled winows vista home and worked my way through the updates. Now, the system works well for me but the hard disk is almost full. When I look at the pie it shows post-colonial windows most of the space. I think I should remove the old windows files. Any help? Thank you.

• How can I remove the Windows Media Player library?

  I have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Edition and Windows Media Player 12.0.7600.166667.

  I finally got my music organized, so I deleted some files from my computer and moved songs between folders.  It seems that I can't remove all the songs from Windows Media Player which do not exist physically.  I tried to empty my entire library, I could rebuilt it.  In Windows Media Player, I clicked on the music (left), and then I clicked on the first song, hold down the SHIFT key and click the last song so that all my music has been chosen.  Then, I clicked and selected delete.  I said that I wanted to remove JUST the library, no computer.  When he was done, there was still 5501 songs left.  I know that once, I could just delete wmplibrary.db, but I get no hits on that when I get into the field at the bottom of the start menu.  I decided to uninstall Windows Media Player and reinstall, but when I go to start-> Control Panel-> uninstall a program, the only entry I see that looks remotely Windows Media Player is Windows Media Encoder 9 Series... but I wasn't brave enough to try it.

  Any ideas?  Thank you!

  Wow - thank you, my mp3 player thanks and my children thank you!  The convenience store did not help - he told me that my library has been altered... as I didn't know that already!  But the manual method operated very well... but if someone else is reading this for help, I don't have to start my computer in safe mode because one of the files (which was large enough that it WAS probably the file that I needed deleted) was in use with the network share and I had no idea how close anyone who opened.  But in safe mode worked very well.

  Thank you very much for your help!  And thanks for the information on troubleshooting: I had never heard of this before!

• How can I remove the windows maximum size limit?

  Windows 7 seem to limit the maximum size of a window to "the resolution of the screen + a few pixels.

  I am currently using the resolution 1200 x 768 and want to be the size of a running application to have the size of 1024 x 800 but can't because Windows 7 seems to be limited. I think that it worked well in Windows XP.

  So, how can I make my window larger than the maximum size allowed size?

  Thank you.

  Hi rkdudgh,

  Windows chooses the best display settings, including the screen, refresh rate and color, based on your monitor resolution. These settings differ depending on whether you have an LCD or a CRT monitor. If you want to adjust your display settings or if these settings were changed and you want to restore the default settings, use the following recommendations in the link.

  Get the best display on your monitor

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/getting-the-best-display-on-your-monitor

  It also depends on the limit set for the graphics card available on the computer.

  I suggest that you visit the card manufacturer display download and install the updated driver for the card and the check.
