When I run Disk Clean Up, the item Webclient/Publisher Temporary Files always
shows 32kb of files that can safely be deleted but they will not disappear
when I tick the box. How can I clear it please?

Hi,
Open a run command and type in:
services.msc click [OK] on the services control panel locate this service
and disable it.

WebClient < double click it and disable the start option.

Reboot your machine, then run disk cleanup, does it help?

Hello nass. Thanks for that. Well it got rid of the item alltogether and after a disk cleanup and reboot it did not appear but when I disabled it in services I got a message warning me that some web functions would not now perform so I renebled it and blow me, when I came to disk clean again it had re-appeareared with the original 32kb of temporary files. Does that mean that the 32kb are perhaps essential temporary files that do not increase? It has always been at 32kb since I first used the computer several years ago.

That's normal to have 32KB for webclient Cache, i will not be worried about
this as long as other temp and compressed files are cleaned your machine not
likely to be junked.

HTH.

OK nass. Thankyou. I can live with that. I have also just spotted another
posting on this forum started by "cyborwanderer", which gives a lot more
information if anyone else is interested. Thanks again. Brian

Hello Nass,

I have a similar problem. For some reason I have 2,496 KB on
WebClient/Publisher Temporary Files. I do not think that is normal. I have
not tired disabling it yet. I am scared I will mess up my computer. What do
these Files mean? why do I have them?
Thanks for the time.

Jose
