Computer Maintenance Question
« on: August 20, 2010, 03:05:03 PM »
Got a question about my computer, I'm running Windows XP, every couple of months I would go into the section named Maintenance and Performance, to do a de-frag on the hard drive, and then clean up unwanted internet files .

I went to do this a few days ago and now I can't find it, has it been hidden away somewhere in an upgrade of Windows XP ?

You can find defrag on the start menu at:-

programs/accessories/system tools/disk defragmenter


In Internet Explorer temporary Internet files can be deleted at :-

Tools/Internet Options/General Tab
