View 3 Replies View RelatedI've always cleaned the Thumbnail Cache using CCleaner but after doing some reading I'm a little unclear as to the benefit.
As I understand it if I clean the TC, each time I open a folder it will need to rebuild the thumbnails. I believe this slows things down. Is there a benefit to not cleaning or does the cache keep growing and using up more space?
I have followed the guides online for disabling the Thumbnail cache in Windows 7(Specifically, the .db files generated when pictures are loaded in Windows Explorer)I disabled it via the tutorial on this website, I have also disabled it in Group Policy Editor... I cleared the existing cache, rebooted, and when i load directories with pictures in them, the .db file(s) are still being generated.I do not wish to disable the display of thumbnails in Windows Explorer...I realize this is the easiest method of ensuring they are not generated in the .db. However there must be a way to prevent windows from doing so.

I tried this and it's worked with a list of a few contacts (about 5), but I'm wondering if Outlook might crash when I attempt this with the full sized contact list, which is about 100 or so total entries.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI had to reset my computer to factory settings a while back. I've done nothing to it except download advanced system optimizer and windows antivirus. This was a miracle alone due to the fact that my Computer locks up for extensive periods of time and will barely ever finish a task; such as transferring a picture to USB drive, scan, or any click command. It has never done this before the reset.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm doing some audio work, editing drums, which involves taking a few audio files (7 or 8) and splitting them into hundreds, one for each drum beat.
My problem is that when I do this, my computer completely locks up. I've noticed that as soon as I do this, Windows 7's RAM Cache jumps up to 1.7gb. And I've only got 2gb of RAM, so it leaves only 300mb for my audio program to run, and I think this is the problem.
Is there a way to temporarily or permanently disable Windows 7's ability to cache your RAM? Because it doesn't seem to be disabling when I want it to.
I'm running the Windows 7 RC Build 7100 atm, with an Intel Core2Duo (2ghz) and 2GB of ram.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI can't find this as I dunno how to explain it for googling. unless I get irrelevant answers! When I clear my browser (IE9) cache, cookies etc, whether via ccleaner or the delete browsing history general tab, I get an annoying voice telling me "how to clear cache, then cookies etc" whenever I open a new window or most new tabs for a sometime afterwards, eventually it stops occuring, obviously fed up with me hitting the mute button, I've checked the audio settings in the ease of access center in control panel, all off & ok, the voice is different anyway.

However, when I go into network and look at the old XP machine it still shows the "Share" but obviously the drive is no longer there.

How to Rebuild the Icon Cache in Windows 7 ?

Processor: Intel Atom CPU N455 @ 1.66GHz
1024 MB RAM
Running Windows 7 Startup
It's just a few months old and has barely been used in that time, but since it's not my laptop I don't know its history. Knowing the owner though, I don't imagine she ever did more than some browsing and text editing with it.My friend's laptop gets a blue screen when starting up, which says CACHE_MANAGER, STOP: 0x00000034 (0x00000107, 0xc0000420, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)It does this when the loading bar for Windows appears on screen, without fail. There is absolutely no way I can get windows to boot. Not in safe mode or with startup repair or anything else.After looking around a bit, I gathered that this BSOD pointed to insufficient memory, failing memory, failing hard drive, bad device drivers or something starting up in windows.I had a look at the BIOS (InsydeH2O version F.22), which offers barely any options except for a memory test and a hard drive test and both passed fine. Startup options also has an HP diagnostics menu which offers a memory and hard disk test and they passed. I don't know if this means anything good.. (the diagnostics menu also has what it calls a "run-in" and a start up test which does a mem test, a short DST and a more extensive DST. I'm not entirely sure what this or if it has anything to do with it but every time it finished the long one it would revert back to testing the short one and this would continue indefinitely in this cycle. I don't know if this is relevant at all though)I'm just not sure what to do next. If it is something in Windows, I can't get into Windows in any way so that doen't seem like an option. Since the HP Mini is completely closed, there is no way to easily open it up and replace/add memory should that be necessary. Is it any use trying a Windows 7 recovery disc (it'd have to be usb, no cd drive)? I don't have one at hand so I thought I'd ask before getting one.
I regularly have to go into Options/ Advanced/ Network/ Clear Cached Content to get pages to display properly.From time to time pages will display with just simple text...no images etc...like a failed webpage load. The solution through trial and error has been to clear the cached content.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am doing a clean install of Windows 7 on my friend's new Samsung Series 5 Ultrabook, which has a 500GB HDD with a 16GB SSD (Flash) Cache (Samsung 530U3B i5-2467M, 4096MB, 516GB, pink (NP-530U3B-A04DE) | Geizhals Deutschland). It's my first time dealing with such a drive so I am wondering where to install Windows - on the SSD (Flash) cache drive or the HDD drive.Furthermore, if I install it on the HDD, how do I utilize the 16GB flash cache which is meant to speed up the system
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt looks like the cache file is ok and if I delete it Windows will recreate it but I have the same issue. It's hard to see in the video but at first the icons are all there just as they should be, then Windows clears them all and (very slowly) refreshes them.

why do I see internet explorer cache when I don't use it as a browser? I use firefox, but every time I do a c.c., a pretty big cache of temp internet files comes up for internet explorer. Is this the result of windows updates? or is something nefarious going on?
