• 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

• How can I access my computer in order to remove downloaded files that has not deleted using the control panel and the usual functions to delete?

  I recently received from remote assistance installed a new anti-virus program. During using the remote technician, I he observed several open windows because it deleted the files that were left by previous anti-virus programs on my computer.  These files prevent the download of the new program.  As I watched him navigate through my programs and files, I noticed that there are a lot of game files that have been deleted by using the functions of the control panel and uninstalling still in my computer.  The technician of 3-4 programs installed on my computer while he removed residual files of the antivirus and promptly removed from these programs when it was correctly installed my new anti-virus program.  I would really like to know how to access files or records what he did and then delete the game files that I thought were removed.  I downloaded at least 100 trial offers for sets of objects hidden over the years and you don't want no trace with my memory of the computer.  No help available out there?

• Scan of found corrupt files that cannot be repaired by SFC

  After problems with a recent update of windows which was followed by a restore failed, a black screen, then a system repair, I now have a number of corrupt dll files which result in "bad image" error messages when I start applications.

  This does not stop at the launch, but is an irritation!

  I ran sfc/scannow which reports corrupt files that cannot be repaired.

  I have a 'backup' restore point in 2012, if I restored it, it would restore these files corrupt, or the only solution would be to use my factory restore disk?

  How to identify files that may be deleted without jeprodizing the files needed to run the system?

  If you have to ask, the answer is "Don't '.  Uninstall programs that you don't need through programs and features or add/remove programs.  Do not, under any circumstances, remove files unless you are absolutely sure you know what you delete first to 100%.

  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.

• I use a free AVG antivirus to analyze my laptop and always, he reports many locked files that cannot be verified.

  original title: locked files.

  I use a free AVG antivirus to analyze my laptop and always, he reports many locked files that cannot be verified. Most of them have the sign $ in front of their name, but I can't find them easily when I search for later, but they are mostly ordinary files that have been recently opened and closed. What are the locked files and can they be removed?

  Hello Omowright,

  Thank you for posting.  This seems to be files that have been quarantined by moy.  This happens usually when your antivirus detects infected files and moves them to a waiting area where they can do no harm to your computer.  For more details on quarantine, I would say that you see the antivirus support site.

  Please let me know if this helps you. Zack

  Try AVG and Avast free programs to find and fix the problem. In the future, these two will warn you if the malware is a download.  If this does not work, try the highjackthis program.  It will save a log that can be used by sites for free assistance to correct your problem.

  I would NEVER erase the hard drive!  I've been SP since its release and have have 60 programs on my computer.

• How to remove a file that cannot be found (file ghost)

  Hi all

  I have a file that I can't remove, it has 0 bytes... I haven't tried unlocker still no help... tried to CUT it and still no luck

  does anyone have any suggestions, I would appreciate everyone's help

  I get a message saying "this file is no longer in the C:\\users\owner\AppData\Roaming

  Thank you Paul

  Try a Chkdsk. There have been cases where data after doing a Chkdsk/r, so make sure that your data is backed up on an external first.

  Click to open the computer. Right click on the hard drive you want to check, and then click Properties. Click on the Tools tab and then, under error-checking, click check now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  To automatically repair problems with files and folders that the scan detects, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will simply report a problem, but not to fix them.

  To perform a full disk check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This scan is trying to find and repair physical errors on the hard drive itself, and it may take much longer to complete.

  To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  Click Start.

  Depending on the size of your hard disk, this may take several minutes. For best results, do not use your computer for any other tasks while it checks errors.

  Note: If you select automatically errors in file system of fix for a disc that is used (for example, the partition that contains Windows), you will be prompted, see the disk check for the next time you restart your computer.
