Creating more disc space
I need to create more disc space on c:. I have removed all unvanted programs, deleted Temporary Internet files etc. but that is not enough. When I searched thru all directories I found that my TEMP-directory contained 14,6 GB of data. The problem is that when I press ctrl+A to mark all files it says 36,4 MB. I have ticked "show all files" so it has to be some other type of hidden files.Is it possible to see the files and is it then possible to delete some of them or is it only system and update files?1 person needs an answerI do too

I have ticked "show all files" so it has to be some other type of hidden files.Is it possible to see the files and is it then possible to delete some of them or is it only system and update files?open your Temp directory in Windows Explorerclick Tools > Folder Options > View tabclick the radio button to "show hidden files and folders"OK your way out.You should now be able to select and delete hidden files from your temp directory. When you're done, you might want to go back and turn off the "show hidden files and folders" option.There also is a check box a little further down the list to "Hide protected operating system files." If you clear this to see system files, be careful that you know what your are deleting. In general, it's OK to delete anything in the Temp directory. Re-enable hiding system files when you are done.

You can use the registry options too.Just take a backup before fixing them in case anything goes wrong.
