I had a really strange thing happen on the weekend. I
used the Disk Cleanup utility and browsed through all the
options and saw a Content & Indexing Service entry in the
list of things I could cleanup.
Well.... The cleanup took a while and then my icons all
started to disappear. Eventually, I had only my
wallpaper and an empty taskbar in front of me; no links
to anything!
I did a reboot and got a message on a missing or
corrupted file hal.dll. When I eventually got the system
booted from a spare ME floppy (I had used FAT32 on
C:\drive) I saw there were no files left on the system,
only a couple of empty directory.
THATS ONE HECK OF A CLEAN UP....
Why is the Content & Indexing Service even listed in Disk
Clean up?
Why does Windows allow itself to be deleted?
