1. Release disk space
The Registry Cleaner helps you free up space on your hard disk to improve the your computer performance. The tool identifies files that you can delete without worries, and then enables you to decise whether you want to delete some or all of the identified files.
Registry Cleaner can save your time on the following jobs:
1.Delete temporary Internet files.
2. Delete downloaded program files (such as Microsoft ActiveX controls and Java applets).
3.Remove the Recycle Bin.
4. Delete Windows temporary files such as error reports.
5.Delete optional Windows components that you don't use.
6.Delete installed programs that you no longer use.
7. Delete unused restore points and shadow copies from System Restore.
The following is manual steps to release space:
1. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools, then click Disk Cleanup. If several drives are available, you might be prompted to specify which drive you want to clean.
2. When Disk Cleanup has calculated how much space you can free, in the Disk Cleanup for dialog box, scroll through the content of the Files to delete list.
Typically, temporary Internet files take the most amount of space because the browser caches each page you visit for faster access later.
