|
|
|
Hello, has anyone used a program to clean their hard drive, many PC's ago I had a (think) Cleansweep program.
Question
1: is it any good
2: is it safe to use.
I'm running on Windows XP service pack 2.
Tks

| Just go through the programs installed and un-install what you dont use, then run disk cleanup, all those third party programs cause more trouble than they are worth, and unless you know what your doing stay away from anything that cleans your registry. |
