Disc Cleanup: the 4th increment

[Guest]

A while ago when I ran the disc cleanup it froze at the
4th increment of the progress bar. I looked through some
articles inthe knowledge base, tried deleting my temporary
files as instructed. Still same. What can I do now ????

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

Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Volume
Caches\Compress Old Files

On the Edit menu, click Delete.
When prompted to "Confirm Key Delete," click Yes.
Quit Registry Editor.
