From another thread I went to look for my prefetch files. I found I
had no prefetch files. Where could they be?
In C:\WINDOWS\PREFETCH there is only one file in the whole folder and
it is called layout.ini. There are no other files there. The
layout.ini is quite big at 630 KB and it contains 11,500 entry lines
each of which refers some file or another.
I remember that a few months ago I had a strange subfolder in
C:\Program Files. It was full of files with a .pf extension so I
deleted it. I forget the subfolder's name now.
I can't search for .pf file wih Win Explorer as it ignores them. So
I searched for .pf files with two different file searching utilities.
They found only four .pf files and all those were in a Dreamweaver
subfolder.
Where in the registry does XP name the prefetch folder & path?
After Googling around, I checked this registry key:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\
Memory Management\PrefetchParameters
and EnablePrefetcher is a REG_DWORD and is set to 3.
How can I get the prefetcher working on my system?
