Slette mappe 'windows.old'?

[eriksg]

Hei!

 

Som tittel, har man bruk for denne mappen? Windows fungerer utmerket på min maskin, men trenger jeg denne? Dessuten tar mappen opp hele 12GB...

ifølge microsoft kan man det, på denne måte:

 

Use the Disk Cleanup tool

The Disk Cleanup tool (Cleanmgr.exe) is included with Windows Vista. You can use this tool to remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder together with its contents. To do this, follow these steps:1. Click Start, and then click Computer.

2. Right-click the hard disk from which you want to remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder, and then click Properties.

3. Click the General tab, and then click Disk Cleanup.

4. Click Files from all users on this computer.

 

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

5. In the File to delete list, click to select the File discarded by Windows upgrade check box.

 

Note Click to clear other check boxes, depending on the other files that you want to remove.

6. Click OK, and then click Delete Files to confirm that you want to permanently remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder together with its subfolders and files.

 

eller denne måte:

 

Use the RD command

You can use the RD (Remove Directory) command-line command to remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder together with its contents. To do this, follow these steps:1. Click Start, type cmd in the Start Search box, right-click cmd.exe in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.

 

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

2. Type cd\, and then press ENTER to change to the root directory of the current drive. Generally, this is drive C.

3. Type drive:, and then press ENTER to change to the drive from which you want to remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder. For example, if the $WINDOWS.OLD folder is on drive D, type d:, and then press ENTER.

 

Note If the command prompt is already at the correct drive, skip this step.

4. Type rd $windows.old /s, and then press ENTER to remove the $WINDOWS.OLD folder together with its subfolders.

5. When you are prompted to confirm the removal of the $WINDOWS.OLD folder, type y, and then press ENTER.
