I am trying to run disk cleanup on my 80GB system hard
drive. Each time I start, I get the dialog box telling
me that Disk Cleanup is calculating how much space I will
be able to free on (C It also indicated that it
is "Scanning : Compress old files." This will continue
for several hours with no apparent progress, and no hard
disk noise, but if I summon the task manager, it
indicates that the CPU is 100% busy, with cleanmgr.exe
using most of the resources.
If I click the cancel button on the dialog box, the
dialog box goes away, but the task manager still shows
cleanmgr.exe running and hogging the CPU.
The system is not frozen, just exceedingly slow until I
reboot.
Not an emergency, but I would like to clean the trash of
my hard drive.
I think I must have a registry flag set, but don't know
how to find and fix it.
Any ideas?
