For a general user, we may never use some functions, or some files are really redundant in the hard disk for us general users, then from now on, we will step by step to our Windows XP step by step. Do some basic optimizations.
After installed XP, we will find that our hard drive has been occupied more than 3 g, the first thing we have to do is to lose weight for the system. Delete a series of files that are not significant in general user meaning.
First we start from the problem left, the system is installed in the installation process to make Windows XP backup some files for Windows XP to update file updates, which is generally prepared for system properly, and is installed for Windows XP, and various After the software and hardware are installed, there is still a small number of files that need Windows XP updated, but these backup files take up a small space, then the first step, we just want to delete these backup files. We open the start menu, select Run, enter "sfc.exe / purgeCache" in the dialog box, the system will pop up a command prompt, this time, the system will put the 290 megabytes of files. Delete.
Open the system's C drive (your Windows XP installation is in the C partition) We select the tool on the menu bar, then select the folder option, select the view, choose to display all files and folders at the hidden file and folder, we open Under the partitions, we will find that there are "$" symbols before and after the folder name. These folders are generally the delete backup files left by the installation patch or upgrade package, for us general users Speaking, the upgrade package will generally not uninstall them after installation, so we can still delete these folders, which saves a lot of space for hard drives.
We all know that Windows XP provides us with a powerful drive library, but the hardware is identified and installed, we can remove this driver backup file to save our hard disk space, we find Driver under the Windows folder. The Cache folder enters the I386 folder under which it is removed, so it saves us 70 megabytes of hard disk space.
