Cybertronic Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Thanks again, Herby :D Would it be possible for you to implement a Copy To and Move To Context Menus just like you did with the Show/Hide System Files and File Extensions Context Menus? I'm sure it might be handy for some members on here :yes: I've heard the registry tweak to implement Copy to and Move To has some side effects in Windows XP however I'm not sure if this occurs in Vista or not because I've been trying to use Copy2 * Move2 Fixed alternative to fix this issue but I haven't been able to use these context menus as they don't appear in the context menu in Vista :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herby Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 New: Enhanced Recycle Bin Menu ERBM+.reg replaces the Delete command from the Recycle Bin with a Clear Temp command. This prevents users from accidentally deleting of the Recycle Bin Icon from the Desktop. :) It also adds a Disk Cleanup command which performs an Extended Disc Cleanup on all disks. The Clear Temp command clears both Temp dirs: %SystemRoot%\Temp\ and %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Temp\. More info & download @ Post #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both contain the same files and when you clear one of them, the both are cleared. Anyway,.. thanks for mentioning it. :) I've changed the command to %Temp% (= %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Temp).

netuser Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Disable Hibernation & delete the Hibernation file (source)Windows places a file on your hard drive that it uses when your computer goes into hibernation mode. If you do not use hibernation mode, or your computer does not properly support it, you may want to disable hibernation and clear the file off your hard drive to free up some space (the file will use as much space as you have in physical memory, so if you have 1GB of RAM, it?s going to use 1GB of your hard drive space). Disable Hibernation: 1. Click Start, All Programs, and then right click on "Command Prompt". 2. From the context menu click on "Run as administrator". 3. If User Account Control prompts you to allow the action, click on Continue. 4. In the command prompt window, type "powercfg ?h off" (without the quotes). 4. Close the Command Prompt window. Delete the Hibernation File: 1. Click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then click "Disk Cleanup". 2. If prompted to choose a drive, select the drive in which Windows Vista is installed on to and press OK. 3. Disk Cleanup will scan the hard drive and present you with a list of options. 4. Check "Hibernation File Cleaner", and then click OK. 5. When asked "Are you sure you want to permanently delete these files?" click on the Delete Files button. It dosent work for me, when I run as admin Command Prompt and enter powercfg ?h off i get an error : Invalid parameters Thanks for ur:)elp :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Clear Temp command clears both Temp dirs: %SystemRoot%\Temp\ and %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Temp\. More info & download @ Post #1 I found an error in the Registry settings. The Clear Temp command was deleting everything in my personal 'Destop' folder, so I researched this a little and found that because I moved my 'Desktop' folder from C:\Users\[my account]\ to another drive 'N:\Desktop' the command for Clear Temp was not finding the correct path. I had some help adjusting the key in order to tell it to go to my %SystemDrive% before doing the 'cd' to the appropriate directories. Here is what I came up with: Cmd.exe /c %SystemDrive% && cd "%SystemRoot%\Temp\" && del *.* /f /q && (for /d %%a in (*) do rd "%%a" /q /s) && cd "%TEMP%" && del *.* /f /q && (for /d %%a in (*) do rd "%%a" /q /s) Also, for my Vista machine the variable for my personal temp folder showed as all CAPS and variables are case sensitive. I'm not sure if it has always been in all CAPS for earlier versions of windows. Edited April 13, 2007 by Ysrafel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
