[WIN XP] info su cartelle

[ilJoe]

Ciao

le cartelle nella dir windows (di win XP) chiamate "$NtUninstallKBxxxxxx$" dovrebbero essere le cartelle necessarie per eventualmente disinstallare gli aggiornamenti scaricati da windowsupdate. Corretto?

Ora, visto che oramai alcuni aggiornamenti sono sul pc da tempo e quindi prob sono funzionanti senza problemi, non ho pi

io nemmeno l'ho trovata, prova ad usare programmi di pulizia del registro tipo CClenaer o RegSeeker, dovrebbero pensarci loro a eliminarla, e se lo fanno loro penso non sia un problema toglierle.

Copio e incollo dalla guida trovata su www.tweakguides.com che mi sembra una delle migliori:

MANUAL DRIVE CLEANING

Below is the manual method for cleaning out the more obvious redundant files in your system. If you donʹt

trust an automated cleaner and want to be certain you only delete unnecessary files, follow these steps:

1. Close all open applications and games as some of these may have created temporary files that cannot be

deleted because they are in use. Restart your system just to be certain.

2. Make sure you empty your Recycle Bin. Also ensure that the option to move files to the Recycle Bin is

enabled. This will provide protection against accidentally deleting a necessary file in the next few steps.

3. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the following directories on the hard drive where you have

installed Windows. Delete any files or subdirectories beneath them, but not the directories themselves:

\Documents and Settings\[your username]\Local Settings\Temp\

\Windows\Temp\

4. Go to \Windows\ and delete all the $NtUninstall directories. These are directories which allow you to

uninstall Microsoft updates typically from Windows Update. Unless youʹve also installed a Beta

Microsoft product (e.g. IE7 Beta), it is highly unlikely you will ever need to uninstall a Microsoft patch,

so deleting these directories is fine. Note that you should not delete the $hf_Mig$ directory.

5. This step involves finding files with file extensions that identify them as redundant. Go to Windows

Search (Start>Search) and select ʹAll files or foldersʹ to bring up the search box. In the first box, enter the

following text and press Enter. In each case delete all incidences of files with these extensions:

*.BAK

*.TMP

~*.*

*.OLD

6. Delete any files you know are not needed anymore, such as older versions of downloaded driver

packages, setup files from downloaded programs, log files and so on. You can also usually delete (or

backup) files found under the \Windows\Downloaded Installations directory.

7. Note, if any files cannot be deleted because they are in use by Windows, reboot your system and go into

Safe Mode (See Backup & Recovery section). From there you should be able to delete any file.

That covers the bulk of unnecessary files on your system. Importantly: do not empty your Recycle Bin just

yet ‐ reboot your system and use it for a while just to be sure the files you have deleted are genuinely no

longer needed. If in doubt, use CCleaner instead of doing things manually.
