• Disk Cleanup stalling on temporary files for more than 3 hours and eat memory!

  So, whenever I checked my C drive I get different numbers on how much space is left. I deleted 45 GB (sent to remove trash and Perm.) data I didn't need and I always as much as before, if not less. I then tried to run the disk cleanup for that drive and it keeps blocking on "files temporary scanning", which since more than 3 h and no other programs other than windows base and Trend Micro are running and system keeps using more memory. EX: below

  RAM used: 3.1GB/4.0GB

  cache in the processor (i5): 4.2mb/7.7mb

  CPU usage has been the use of 80-90% during this period

  Frequency Max CPU is 109%

  This all started a few days after a windows update.

  It is using 25% CPU usage... as to what it is I don't have any idea. I've used it before and it scanned in less than 45 min.

  Anyone have any suggestions to correct the program that is not responding?

• I have a 45 GB hard drive which gives a msg of disk is low, but can only account for about 15 GB used. Run Disk Cleanup, but it did not help. I'm looking for why the drive is full?

  There is nothing huge load on the computer.  No photos, no videos and some documents.
  Even displays hidden files and still no explanation.
  Working on SP2... not enough space to install SP3.

  Download and run JDiskReport: http://www.jgoodies.com/freeware/jdiskreport/index.html

  This will show you what files take up space.

  You can run the disk cleanup tool (start > run > cleanmgr > OK), but if you still get low disk space message, I suspect that it's your System Volume Information directory.

  You must "show the hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" to see this directory, but it isn't something to mess with casually and the system normally will prevent you to do so.

  The IVR directory includes the restore points created by system restore and the database of indexing created if you let Windows index your drive.

  If you have not changed the default, the system restore will take up to 12% of your drive hard or about 5.4 GB of your 45 GB drive.  See http://bertk.mvps.org/html/diskspace.html as fill you the disk, the system restore can produce some of its space, but, in doing so, it will generate these warnings "low disk space".  If you're curious, see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300044

  Windows XP provides a feature called the "Indexing Service" which can speed up the file searching in some cases.  As a general rule, speed is not overhead, both in system for indexing resources happens in the database index files that take place in the IVR directory.  See, for example, http://lifehacker.com/#! 031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp

• My XP desktop seems to have thrown my 'system tools' function and I want to use the disk cleanup and defragmentation... How to get back the system tools?

  My computer is as I said above a desk with the microsoft XP program and is a little less than five years.  It has been slow and it dawned on me that I hadn't used the disk cleanup or some defrag for a while, but I clicked on start, all programs, accessories, System Tools was is no longer.  I have not been able to access the disk cleanup or defragment option and hope that out there, can someone advise me how to get this feature.

  You can run Disk Cleanup and Defragmenter disk since the start > run box by typing the following

  Cleanmgr
  Dfrg.msc

  You can restore all of the 'Accessories' group (including system tools) by following the directions here--> http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Accessories.htm

  Or you could just create shortcuts to

  C:\Windows\system32\dfrg.msc
  and
  %SystemRoot%\System32\cleanmgr.exe

  Note that % SystemRoot % is the directory where Windows.  You can use this form or explicit as in the example for the shortcut from the Defrag.

• When you use disk cleanup, drive D C and recovery should be included?

  When you use disk cleanup should you clean disk (C) operating system, and the recovery disc D. Then on drive c must only choose th files that are already enabled as the downloaded programs files and temp. Internet files or you need to clean more options?

  Do NOT run the cleaning or do anything at all on the recovery D: drive.   Do not add files, defragment, compress, chkdsk, or something else.  Let completely alone.

  Insofar as what to remove NSB C:\ drive, this decision is entirely yours.  You can add or remove options as you seem, and that you feel able to make - do as much as you can in these settings.  More your cleaning, the more you'll be available and, in some cases, it can even run your computer to start, and stop faster.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• OS Windows vista 32 bit home edition Options more than Disk Cleanup doesn't give me any more disk space when used, y at - it update?

  I need help with disk cleanup, please.

  Note: If you try to free up disk space, Disk Clean-Up is not the only way to do it. Ask if you want more ways to clean up your drive diisk.

  Addressing your question, the disk cleanup cannot free a lot of space if you liked - it varies the amount of temporary files are on your PC. If it doesn't increase disk space, it is not a major problem.

  OR for a Vista reinstall:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Touchpad causing excessive use of CPU on Vostro 3558 (Windows 10)

  Hello.

  I am therefore unable to use Windows 10 because using the touchpad causes the process "System and compressed memory" to use more than 30% of CPU.

  I made a GIF showing what I mean:

  As soon as I start to scroll and move the pointer this process ("Sistema y memoria compartida" in Spanish, but it's the same, ntoskrnl.exe) raises my CPU usage, as you can see.

  I tried a lot of things, but I always have to go back to Windows 7 or Windows 8.

  -J' uses latest Touchpad drivers from the site Web of Vostro 3558.

  -J' tried 19.0.9.4 old synaptic drivers for Vostro 3558 by www.dell.com/.../DriversDetails

  -J' lastest synaptics.com generic drivers, tried both SMBus and IC2 versions, but they do not work at all (I even manually installed them in Device Manager).

  -This has happened the upgrade of Windows 8 to 10 of Windows and installs also in fresh Win10.

  Without drivers from dell (using default microsoft HID Driver and synaptics.com), I get no problems of use of CPU, but none of the gestures of course.

  I ask for help because I don't want to stay in Win7/Win8, and it drives me crazy.

  I fixed it messing with Vostro 3559 touchpad driver and driver Lenovo Yoga 3 1370.

  IN FACT, WINDOWS 8.1 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM, I HAVE NOT TRIED WINDOWS 10.

  THE STEPS I DID TO FIX IN WINDOWS 8.1;

  1. install the VOSTRO 3559 Windows 7 touchpad drivers:

  

  2. open Device Manager, open the section "Mice and other pointing devices" and right click on "Dell Touchpad" (it should be named only after having installed the drivers Vostro 3559). Select "Update driver software".

  3. click on "Let Me pick from a list of drivers on my computer"

  4. uncheck the "Show compatible hardware", go to "Synaptics" and select "Touchpad"

  

  5. now if you check your device manager there is NO HIGH CPU USE, BUT TOUCHPAD IS LAG like *, as on some XPS models.

  Now, why I did everything above? Because I can not install directly Lenovo Touchpad drivers without installing the first software of Vostro 3559. Synaptics software simply does not therefore not gestures.

  6. DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE WINDOWS 8.1 LENOVO YOGA TOUCHPAD DRIVERS 3

  

  Direct link:

  7. OPEN the DEVICE MANAGER AGAIN AND THE SAME THING, BUT THIS TIME WE will USE "LENOVO POINTING DEVICE" rather than "TOUCHPAD" OR "DELL TOUCHPAD"

  8. YOU're not in MEASUREMENT OF CLICK NOW AS a RESULT OF SWITCHING THE DRIVER, so YOU WILL NEED AN EXTERNAL MOUSE, OPEN TASK MANAGER AND CLOSE ALL SYNAPTICS and PROCESS RELATED of TOUCHPAD.

  9. GO TO C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP AND OPEN SYNTPENH. EXE

  
  

  10. HERE, YOU HAVE A JOB ENTIRELY TOUCHPAD WITHOUT MAKING YOUR CRAZY CPU

  You don't need to do anything at the next start of Windows, it is already fixed.

  REFERENCE DELL FIX YOUR DRIVERS.

• Why Windows 7 displays an incorrect amount of free disk space / used on my DVD - RW drive?

  Why Windows 7 displays an incorrect amount of free disk space / used on my DVD - RW drive?

  Windows 7 can show the incorrect amount of free and used space in serious DVD - RW or DVD + RW media properties.  After burning data on the disk, Windows 7 could show that there are 0 bytes of used space and free space available on the disk capacity.  In reality, the amount of used and free space on the disk is reversed.
