Disk Clean up other options?

[Guest]

I am having the same disk clean up problems as others. I have tried the fixe
shown in MSKB articles 812248 and 823302 as well as the fixes at Kelly's Korner

But the disk cleanup still freezes regardless of which items are checked to b
cleaned out or compressed. Running XP home

Dunno, Rich.....have you tried both:

Restore Disk Cleanup - cleanmgr (Line 84)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Disk Cleanup freezes during the Compressed File Phase: This edit corrects
the problem:

Disk Cleanup - Compressed Old Files Freezes (Line 48)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.
