This article shows you the ways to delete and delete the c disk in the windows system. The content is concise and easy to understand, which can definitely brighten your eyes. I hope you can get something through the detailed introduction of this article.

Windows XP (hereinafter referred to as XP) system occupies a large amount of hard disk space, but many files are not necessary for normal operation of the system, and not every user needs, so we can manually "slim down" the system without any software, on the one hand, it can save hard disk space, and on the other hand, it can improve the running speed of the system.

1. Clean up the Documents and Settings directory

"Documents and Settings" is a special directory in XP, which records some special file information of the user. Let's see what can be deleted.

C:\ Documents and Settings\ All Users\ Application Data\ Microsoft\ User Account Pictures\ Default Pictures

It is used when setting up an account or using MSN. These pictures are nothing special and can be deleted or replaced with your favorite pictures.

C:\ Documents and Settings\ user name\ My Documents\ My Music

People usually open up a special place to store music on their hard drives, so delete it. One thing to note: if you often play WMA files, it is inevitable to download some music playback licenses to the local hard drive, and the system will put these licenses in this directory by default. If you see the "license backup" directory in the directory, it is recommended to copy it to another location and change the path in WMP's tools / license Management.

C:\ Documents and Settings\ user name\ [start] menu\ Program\ attachment

This directory is a shortcut icon for some programs. Very few functions are really used in the attachment, only "notepad" and "Windows Explorer" are commonly used. Copy the program shortcut icon you need to C:\ Documents and Settings\ All Users\ [start] menu\ programs\ Accessories, and then delete this directory.

C:\ Documents and Settings\ user name\ Favorites

Have you ever used the shortcut icons here, "MSN.com" and "Radio Station Guide"? Delete it if it doesn't work.

C:\ Documents and Settings\ user name\ Favorites\ Links

As above, if you don't need it, you can delete this directory. Also modify the registry here to permanently delete the linked folder. Find the key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Microsoft\ Internet Explorer\ Toolbar" in the registry and delete the value of "LinksFolderName" on the right.

Objective: to simplify the directory structure and program shortcut icons.

2. Program files can also be deleted

"C:\ Program Files" is familiar because when you install the program, the default installation path is here, so let's see what can be deleted.

C:\ Program Files\ Windows Update

This directory is used for online upgrade and can be deleted. As long as you log in to Windows Update's upgrade website again to upgrade, this directory will be automatically rebuilt.

C:\ Program Files\ Windows Media Player\ Skins

This is the "skin" of WMP. I believe a lot of "skin" will not be used. It is better to leave only a few commonly used ones and delete the rest.

C:\ Program Files\ Common Files\ Microsoft Shared\ Stationery

This is the stationery pattern in Outlook. Keep the useful ones and delete the ones you don't need. If you don't use Outlook to send and receive email, delete it all.

Objective: to delete unused components in the program.

3. The Windows directory can also be cleaned.

Don't be intimidated by "C:\ Windows", there are also a lot of things to delete. In this directory, files of type ".BAK, .BMP, .OLD, .TMP" can be deleted. In addition to SchedLgU.txt (which is used for the task scheduler service), the ".TXT" file can also be deleted. In addition, clock.avi, Control.ini files can also be deleted, it will not have any impact on the system.

C:\ Windows\ $NtUninstall$

This is the directory that the system automatically creates when you upgrade Windows online to facilitate the uninstallation of installed system patches. If the patch works properly, these directories are meaningless, and these directories and files can be safely deleted. You can uninstall these patches in "add or remove programs". Of course, the patches are not really removed, but just make the "add or remove programs" window cleaner.

C:\ Windows\ Help

When you run Windows XP for the first time, the system always prompts you to run "roaming Windows XP". The Chinese version uses a file in HTML format, only files, no sound. In fact, the English version of the roaming function is also installed in the system. Although it is in English, there is language, music and beautiful animation. It is "tour.exe" in the "Tours/mmtour" directory. If it is useless, the entire directory of "Tours" can be deleted. Before that, delete the "tourstrt.exe, tourW.exe, and" tourstart.exe "files under the" C:\ Windows\ System32 "directory in" C:\ Windows\ System32\ dllcache ".

C:\ Windows\ inf (hidden)

In this directory, you will see many files with the same file name and different suffixes, which are ".inf" and ".pnf" respectively. ".pnf" is the precompiled file of ".inf" file. If there is no ".pnf" file, the ".inf" file will automatically create the corresponding ".pnf" file when it runs. Therefore, all ".pnf" files in this directory can be deleted.

(show) after you open my computer, click "folder options" in the "tools" of the project bar, click "View" in the pop-up dialog box, select "Show all files and folders" under hidden files and folders, and click "apply".

C:\ Windows\ Media

These are some of the MID and WAV sound effects that come with the system. You can keep those you like and delete those you don't like.

C:\ Windows\ Web

The "gif" and "htm" files here can be deleted. Take a look in the "Wallpaper" directory, most of the desktop backgrounds that come with the system are here, and anything you don't like can be deleted.

C:\ Windows\ System32

There are many folders with names such as "1033", which mainly store error reports in the system, most of which are empty folders that can be safely deleted.

C:\ Windows\ System32\ ReinstallBackups

There are many subdirectories, which are the driver backups of the hardware in the computer. If you upgrade or replace a piece of hardware and you are sure that the original driver will no longer be used, you can delete the corresponding directory.

Objective: to delete redundant backup files in the system directory.
