Title: Disable Compression On Xp, NTFS partition, Disk Cleanup Post by: Alex on February 27, 2007, 02:05:49 PM On an NTFS partition, Disk Cleanup can compress old files
to save space. But calculating the savings and performing the compression often take a long time, and on some systems, Disk Cleanup hangs during the process. If that happens, or if you don't care to wait, use this Registry tweak to disable the compression: Delete the key HKEY_ LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches\Compress Old Files. |
