No Fool Like an Old Fool

Nick Thompson

Today I just deleted 200 Gb of corrupted (I hope!) files from my computer.  The problem was a conflict between the windows compressor and the thingy that creates temporary files.  See below.  This corrupt process not only hides the files but puts them beyond the reach of the disc cleanup utility.

I was unable to execute the recommended operations with the windows module installer, so my problem may re=emerge.  But for the meantime, I have 200 Gb of breathing room.  Ahhhhhhhh!

 

Thanks all

 

Nick
