  Hello

  Thanks for asking!

  If I understand correctly, you want that registry key is responsible for the amount of storage on the disk space for offline files.

  I suggest you to visit these links and check if it helps.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/904676?WA=wsignin1.0

  For the registry key, see this.

  It describes the registry key that defines the value for an amount of
  storage for use offline files:
  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\NetCache

  To do: Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

• What is the name of the utility of compression/decompression of files provided with Windows?

  I used to use program compression/decompression windows utility files to access the '.zip' files  However, I need to open a ".rar" file and another file compression utility has been downloaded to my computer.  I deleted the program that was installed on my computer.  However, now I can't open all files with the extension ".zip".  I would like to know how to get windows to use its ' default utility of compression/decompression of files again.  Please help me with this.

  I'm sure that its just explorer.exe dealing .zip files. For the value by default, you do a right click on the .zip file, choose open with, then choose default program. After that, place you c:\windows\explorer.exe

• clean files compressed into disk

  I just did a disk cleanup and I have 1 273 986 kb of compressed files.  I'm afraid to delete and can't find them on my PC anywhere if I can see what files are.  Can anyone help?

  Thank you... Dick

  Thank you for your response.  You say that it's OK to delete old files compressed during the disk cleanup?  If I delete these files, how can I know what I'm deleting?  Where are they available for consultation on my C drive.  I don't want to delete a file that I regret deletion.  I did a disk cleanup, but I chose not the old files compressed to the deletion for this reason.

  Do not delete the 'old files compressed."  The system may well have compressed the files you want to keep.

  By default, the XP Disk Cleanup tool offers "compression of old files."  If you use this option, the system compresses the files that have not been used for some specified time (I don't know the value).  The files remain on the hard drive - exactly in the same place, they were--and if you access a compressed file, the system he unzips on the fly.

  If you have not changed the default settings of the system, when you open Windows Explorer, the already compressed files this way are shown in blue (a green file is encrypted).

  For a view of the compression of the files (which I share), see the user 'A' answer in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-performance/disk-cleanup-compress-old-files/8ffe74e5-23c8-4787-ad91-0cc329bd2c0a
  In addition to some risk, there may be in file compression, it often takes a long time for disk cleanup to "[e] er how much space you will be able to release" by compressing the files.  For this reason, some people (including me) turn off this feature of disk cleanup: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812248

  During a recent drive clean that I discovered I had 21745 KB of old files compressed - what are compressed old files?

  AND is it OK to delete to free up disk space?

  Hi Janie,
  We need a bit more info here. What you saw and where (or how do you here). XP can compress old files when they were little used. These files must be stored somewhere, and I think that you have found where. Do not delete them. If you went on the cleaning disc in the properties of a hard disk, you see where you can disable this active or disabled, but turn it off takes more space because you don't compress these files more. It can take a long time to turn it off too much because the system must find every file, unzip it save it to the hard drive and do the following. If it runs out of disk space free of it, it will stop and make either but then your hard drive will be very close to full and your entire system will slow down (it takes a good amount of HD to 'play'.

  Looks like you need more disk space. Get another drive (expensive) or go to disk cleanup and try to compress the entire drive. It will take a lot of time, maybe hours or overnight depending on the working speed and the player. But it's free. Overnight is best. I think you can stop it (read the help on this). Do not turn It Off during the race. Bad move.

• Deleting files in the Windows folder.

  I have $NtuninstalKB... files $ in my Windows folder. I could delete them without affecting Windows?

  P S long

  You can remove them without making the overall Windows operatin, the question is why do you want to do this?

  I can only guess one of two things...

  (1) you're obsessed with cleaning the Windows folder (and all the others.)  A compulsion.

  (2) you are trying to free up as much space as possible for some reason any.

  Whatever it is...

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
  -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
  -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
  -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
  -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  Compress, (Compact in American English), removes waste of space, not your messages. Please read below, but if compact you and still get the prompt, after return. It is another question.

  Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
  http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact

  Compacting your folders periodically is a must to keep OE works fine and at some point, you may lose all your saved messages if you do not. When you delete or move messages, the space they used remains until you compact.

  Never touch anything until the compression is finished.* *.

  See:
  www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

  With SP2, Automatic compaction in the background has been removed because of problems he has caused. Now, you will get a prompt to compact after 100 closures of OE, you need to do, and do not touch anything until it's finished. If you compact manually, at your convenience, this will also set the counter to zero. See this for more information:
  http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm#compact

  If you are fully patched, you will now see a copy of your dbx files copied to the Recycle Bin as BAK files. If something goes wrong when compacting, the messages can be easily restored from this backup. A compact manual resets also the counter in the back of the registry to zero now.

  For more information, see the information framed in red here:
  www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

  To keep things running smooth and harden faster:

  Do not archive mail in default OE folders. It will eventually become corrupt and you may lose mail. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

  And backup often.
