I posted this last night but being the day after Christmas I think it got
bumped before many people read it so I'm reposting hoping for more help...
I ran disk cleanup today. I stopped it because it was taking too long and
when I cancelled I came to find out it had deleted 10GB of information
including all my personal pictures, etc. I am still not entirely sure of the
damage suffice to say my start menu is nearly empty and while most of my
programs are on my C drive, they cannot be accessed from the start menu any
longer, I only get empty folders.
I clicked, for the first time, an option in disk cleanup that said "Catalog
files for the Content Indexer" and was large. It said it was safe but this
is the option that started ruining things.
Can anybody help? I'm running XP Pro and Have Norton AV 2005 which was
updated on the 22nd of December...the most recent update.
