Help! I am trying to clean out my hard drive after about a year finally, and cleanmgr is not functioning. As a result, I am finding it impossible to clear out all my temporary drives. Does anyone have an idea why this program is not functioning?

Thanks,
Mike

Tell me a litlle more, do you suspect or have had Virus warning?

And heres your cleaner for the Temp Folders and all the histories and all that cluttery type trash!

File Cleaner In case you still need to post heres a few Q's to help us help you better MD.



1. is there multiple user accounts on the computer.( other sign in names?)

2. In your own words whats happening including any error messages.

3 Have you taken steps to fix this problem, did you try to fix the problem in safe mode or by rebooting?

Do you have ANY idea why this started happening originally? What does the program actually do when you try to use and give it the command, are you getting a blank screen or does the PC seem to be hanging up or taking a real real long time to load recently?


Ok, I tried and I hope this helps you Md, if you need to repost please use the OS folder and thanx 4 using Geekstogo forums!
