Just thinking that these files have been
accumulating for a long time makes us picture that it has taken
a lot of our memory, because in the worst scenarios it might
have acquired several megabytes, or even some gigabytes, but let
not declare our PCs terminally ill, because the solution is not
only very simple, but it also takes a few minutes.
For our solution to be much more effective, we need to
deactivate the option of �do not show hidden or system files�.
and change it into �show hidden or system files�., because many
of this �junk�. files are camouflaged and hidden in all our
folders. To do this you have to enter into the Windows Explorer,
go to the Tools menu, Folder Options and in the section of
hidden files and folders, swap to the option that says something
similar to �show all the hidden files and folders�. Temporary
files have many shaped, but are mainly stored in two folders |
|
 |
One of these folders is: �C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\�. This
folder started to be used with Windows 95, which stored the
files temporarily, because there were many programs that
required some of these files in order to function, the problem
was that these files kept been stored and their sizes increased
as the program was used. However, nowadays this file keeps
functioning in both, Windows XP and Windows Vista, |
so if you see that your
computer suddenly turns
slower, one of the reasons might be that there are too many
temporary files stored that require to be erased, that is why I
would recommend you to go the menu and write: %TEMP%, without
letting the �%�. Aside, a folder called
Temp. will appear; what
you have to do is mark everything, including all the files and
then totally erase them, and by totally I mean that you would
also need to delete them from the Recycle bin. |
|
Some files might be impossible to erase, there is
no need to alarm, because maybe they are been used, what you
have to do is restart your PC and try again. The second folder
you must take into account is �C:\Documents and Settings\<User�s
Name>\Local Configuration\Temp �.; this folder is also used by
operative systems such as Windows XP ,Windows Vista,
Windows 7,in order
to erase them, you would have to look them up, you must change
the part of the <User�s Name> for your Windows profile, after
these, select everything and erase it.
You must take into consideration that our browser also keeps
temporary files in order to access to websites faster, but those
are also some that we do not need and are been stored. What we
must do in those cases is look after them in our Control Panel,
search for Networks and Internet, Internet Options, enter into
the General gap, and in the section of Internet Temporary Files
click into the Delete button and finally, close it.
