Clean up? More like a wipeout
“Can we trust the disk clean-up application?” asked Raj Patel last week.
Peter Young has an answer: “I recently upgraded my ‘Vista Ready’ Toshiba from XP Pro to Vista and noticed after a week or so that I had lost 6GB of hard-disk space. I ran disk cleanup, which miraculously retrieved 80GB of disk space from a 100GB disk.”
On rebooting, Peter discovered that the clean up has managed to remove most of Vista. It only took a week for him to reinstall XP and his old applications. That’s what you call spring cleaning.
