Nemix Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Hi, I've made what I think is a short list of safe files/folders to add to the included list for cleaning in Windows Vista/7 32/64-Bit, feel free to add to my list so I can include them in my cleaning sessions. *Please provide at detailed information of the files/folder to add and why it is safe to include for cleaning.* *You can include a star rating out of 5 for how safe it is to include for cleaning.* My list for far in Windows 7: C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Downloaded Installation\*.* - This folder is used by installations to download temporary update files if necessary for installation. (Hidden, 5/5) C:\Users\(Your User Name)\AppData\Local\Temp\*.* - This folder is used to store temporary files used by installations and Windows. (Hidden, 5/5) C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\*.* - Windows uses this folder to download temporary? program files used for Windows updates? (4/5?) Attributes, Hidden = Not normally seen in Windows Explorer, Go to Control Panel, Folder Options, View, Click 'Show Hidden Files, Folders and Drives' to show the folder. Star Rating = How safe it is to include for cleaning, 5/5 meaning safest. Remember, this is just a user based star rating and does not mean it's 100% safe to clean. You have to decide whether is totally safe to include for cleaning on your system configuration. Happy cleaning, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
