I constantly deleting my temp. files by going to TOOLS, then INTERNET
OPTIONS, then clicking on the "delete files" and "delete all files in the
temporary internet folder".
However, when opening the FIND --> FILES AND FOLDERS and typing *.tmp,
this still brings up some 3000 odd *.tmp folders.
The last few times I've run a virus scan, it's taken much, much longer than
normal. When I look at when the scan is crawling, it's always
something in the temp/folders that making it take so long.(It use to
Virus-scan in
around an hour, now it takes about 10 hours so there's a lot of crap
somewhere that's making it take so long.)
Someone said to;" dump the contents of the C:\Windows\Temp folder",
Is this done in; FIND --> FILES AND FOLDERS ?
If so, when opening the FIND --> FILES AND FOLDERS, should I type in
C:\Windows\Temp folder there and then delete everything after first
rebooting?
If I'm not explaining it right and there's a better way of explaining it to
me, I'd be very thankful
Again, any help and assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,Brent
