Cleanmgr Hangs

[Vern]

When I run Cleanmgr Windows XP appears to hang. If I go
into Taks Manager/Performance, CPU usage is at 100% and
when I click on the Process tab, cleanmgr is hogging all
the CPU.

Anyone have this experience with cleanmgr?

Thanks,

When you run the Disk Cleanup utility, the program may stop responding
(hang) while scanning for compressed files.

CAUSE
This issue occurs when there is an incorrect entry in the registry that is
used by the Disk Cleanup utility to locate compressed files..
