Temp folder files

A reader recently noted that when he ran Disk Cleanup in XP and selected the option to delete temporary files, there were still hundreds of files left in his Temp folder. The reason is that the Disk Cleanup utility only removes files in the Temp folder if they're over a week old. If you need to get rid of them right away, you can delete them manually:

1. Click Start | Run
2. In the Run box, type %temp% to quickly open the Temp folder
3. In the Temp folder displayed in Windows Explorer, press CTRL+A to select all files.
4. Press the Delete key.
You may have to reboot in order to delete some files.
