Way To Analyze And Cleanup The AppData Area?
Feb 27, 2012
I was shocked to see how large my AppData area has gotten since the Windows 7 installation. I'm finding it hard to believe that everything in there is still "in play". Is there a way to do a safe, examined cleanup of these directories?

I get BSOD's whenever I do anything even remotely cpu/gpu intensive, be it 3D gaming, watching high def videos for prolonged periods or sometimes even installing software.

I have never had a month without a BSOD. Every time I analyze the dump file, the probably cause is different. All I want is a stable Windows machine that I don't have to worry about when I go to bed. Is that too much to ask? nyway, system info:Windows 7 64 bitRAM: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)HDD: all over the place but 2x RAID0 arraysCPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz LGA 775 65WMoBo: GIGABYTE GA-EP45C-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45PSU: 700WI built this box In September of 2009 (2 yrs ago)

I am looking for a utility that will analyze HDDs of client computers on a Windows Network. I've looked around and seen utilities that will defrag any number of computers on a network, but really I don't want that as they require an agent to be installed, and I don't want to install anything else on the client computers, they are full to bursting. Anyway...So just a utility or program that would analyze the disk of each client computer, and generate some sort of report or list of client computers in need of a defrag that I would preform during off hours, or schedule to run late at night.

I am regarded as the family and friends computer problem solver and in a lot of cases e.g. slowdown/virus etc it is just doing a bit of housekeeping which they don't or can't be bother doing. However this takes a bit of time and I was wondering if there was a good tool out there that you would recommend to save me crawling through their PCs uninstalling unused programs, clearing out .tmp files etc etc - you know the kind of things.

So I want to perform a disk clean up on my laptop, except I have no idea which items in the list are safe to delete and which are not. I've looked through Google and a lot of sites say it's safe to just delete everything, but I want to make sure.
The following:
Downloaded Program Files - 0 bytes
Temporary Internet Files - 0 bytes
Game Statistics Files - 3.71 KB
Recycling Bin - 0 bytes
Service Pack Backup Files - 920 MB
System error memory dump files - 5.00 MB
[code]....

I've recently formatted my laptop, maybe a month ago or so and this is the first time i experience such a problem. I click in Disk Cleanup and it simply crashes, I googled around couldn't find anything useful, I tried most of the solutions suggested here: In Windows 7, Disk cleanup stops working on System Files after - Microsoft Answers and nothing.

I installed SP1 and everything was just fine (for months).Then I used "Disk Cleanup" to remove the SP1 installation files and other temporary files.After a few restarts,I got some USB problems.Peripherals started to work at USB 1 speed. Here's how the USB section of the Device Manager looks:
I restored the system partition a few times and I can say pretty confidently that using Disk Cleanup is the cause. Although I'm not sure if the problem is caused by removing SP1 files or some other temporary files.Motherboard is an Asrock ALiveNF6G-VSTA. I'm also using a USB hub, but the problem (slower speed) happens on _all_ USB ports, both on the hub and directly on the motheboard.Windows 7 64 bit, everything updated.

I notice that one of my backup programs has selected all the folders in my User folder to be backed up. Among those selected is the hidden folder AppData, containing 8800 files. Since there are files in there that seem to change daily, it slows down the daily backup. I am wondering if there is really anything in there that I need to back up. I've read that some older versions of Outlook and sometimes Windows Live Mail put data in there, but in the past I've restored computers and I've never copied anything from AppData. It does not seem to be the stored emails, perhaps it is confuguration data? So my question is, can I remove AppData from my backup job and what might I be losing?

Well my computer was infected with a strange virus recently which I managed to get rid of with help of various antiviruses and anti spywares, and my pc is all clean again. But the problem I have now is that great number of folders have disappeared! I have already checked if they were hidden or even deleted, but when I manually access those folders from browser address bar it works just fine. (I.E theres no way I can see my "program files x86" in the browser, but yet when I type in C:program files x86 it would take me there just fine").

Amd Phenom II x4 B55 BE, 4gb ram, 2 1tb hdd, 1 250gb external, win7 prof. 64-bit, running kaspersky now. Was using avast prior to problem. Ok to the problem: Unusual or perhaps just new memory usage being high (cpu usage just fine)Direct cause: svchost.exe (system, pid 888) to be exact..Possible Indirect Cause: Virus (most notably the fakeAV trojan)Ok, so i got the fakeAV trojan last night late. I have i believe cleaned it completely, still running a few last scans to check, then rerunning a few in safe mode, but so far everything has come back clean lately. (at least each program once clean, usually multiple).So what this virus does is install a fake av pop up, which of course didn't click and a program called arc.exe (which runs in task manager as microsoft 8 direct blah blah bull) and downloads trojans. So I manually deleted (end process tree, file location, delete, it was in a temp folder) the arc.exe (which was the fake anti-virus pop up blocking me from accessing anything on my computer), but it damaged the registry and I could no longer execute any .exe files, open any programs, or install anything. I did the manual delete etc etc in safe mode with networking.
So out of necessity I restored the computer to a week ago to fix the registry/file access issue to be able to get av software etc etc.(I also deleted all the temp folders, prefetch (it had a lot of download instances of the trojan for the arc.exe file) and a few spot files i knew were bad (i keep close tabs on what I've put on my computer when, and using search modified and looking at date created, deleted a few folders and such that were no good).

My netbook was working normally but I was running low on space so I decided to run a disk cleanup. I opted to compress the files as well. Then I put the netbook to sleep.
Trying to restart this morning, the "Toshiba" screen came up (with access to the boot menu) and immediately after a black screen with the following message appears:
YKNRE is compressed
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart
When I follow the instructions, the same cycle repeats. This is a nebook without a CD drive. I am traveling in Iran and am stuck.

I ran the disk cleanup and it freed up several GB of space on my C drive (I have a Dell laptop with a C drive with about 62 GB of space and a D drive with 426 GB.I let it run overnight because it said it was going to take 6 hours (no idea how long it actually took).
It had either shut down or hibernated, so I turned it back on the next morning. Windows booted up, but has not been working--I can't use the shortcuts, and even if I click on something from the start menu it won't run. (Firefox, for example, or other programs). It gives me an error message about the data not being found with an I/O error.I am able to use the internet and some programs in Safe Mode, which is what I'm doing now.I can't use my audio system in Safe Mode.I have the upgrade CD for Windows 7--they sent it after I had bought the computer. Do I need to reinstall Windows 7?Can I do it from the update CD?Do I need to back up all of my files (photos, etc) before I reinstall it?

I have a two HDD setup with a newer Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB as my secondary drive. It stores all my bigger files such as video games, videos, and so on. Whenever I try to optimize that hard drive using Disk Cleanup or Disk Defragmenter, it doesn't seem to execute the program. The hard drive is running and DC and DD have it on their list but when I use DC it would just come up with 0 mb to clean every time and DD always run a lot faster than the smaller primary drive which is also Western Digital. Is there somewhere in Windows 7 configuration that I need to change to enable the disk to be optimized?
