Prefetch Opitmization With Pro-SP
Aug 15, 2005
Since Windows Vista™ (formerly code named Longhorn) was announced there have
been many articles in the news letters and Forums I visit suggesting that
SuperFetch in Vista™ can be initiated in XP SP2 with tweaks for faster
performance by editing the registry by editing the Session Manager settings
in the Current Control Set.The most common view was set prefetch in Current Control Set to enable dword value 3.Others suggest purging the prefetch folder frequentlyAs far as I know the prefetch in XP SP2 is the same as it has been in Windows version from way back and it is not possible to enable the superfetch that is in Vista™.

Very slow start up(13-14 min) Windows X P.I am getting pop up that says corrupt file CwindowsprefetchJQSNOTIFY.EXE-24AE4A36.PF is corrupt.RunChkdsk utility.I have backed up my files, did a disc clean up,and a defrag 92 % space avail.,attempted to run the Chkdsk but with the very slow srart-up after reboot it never ran(waited 30 min.) I did this twice,no results.Would it be possible (if I can get to the folder) to just delete everything in the folder & start it anew?

I read that clearing the prefetch data cache folder of all its files will speed up start up? Is this true and is it safe?

I found this 'tip' recently and even though 'boot speed' is NOT an issue, I was wondering what you people thought? Is this safe to do and is it worth doing?
