can I safeley delete the contents of the following folders as they are full of junk:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

I am on W2K if it makes any difference.

mj, open IE and use tools, internet options, delete files, delete all off line files etc..

thats a better way.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp

mj, why are you worried about this :

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp

What is the profile size for administrator ??

If you have been using the admin account for generally logging in;
create yourself another user account using the admin account as a template. Then leave the admin account alone, do not use it as an everyday account.
It could save you a lot of hassle.

I am just trying to clean up some of the sh1te, as in the next couple of weeks i will be doing a reinstall, but before I do I want to make a copy of the contents of the drive, I am trying to thoin it down a bit.

cheers,

mike.

FT's right, if your using the admin profile and it gets corrupted, you are fooked mate.

do what he says and create another user, and give them admin rights.
you will still have the "Power" baby!!
