Speeding Up Windows - Tidy Up Your Temp Folder

Clean up the temporary files in your C:WindowsTemp folder that waste space and may slow start-up. Add the line

del C:WindowsTemp*.tmp > nul 

to your Autoexec.bat file to clean up this file every time you start your computer. If you're running Windows 98, you can run the System Configuration Utility, click on the Autoexec.bat file and on New (if you don't already have an Autoexec) or Edit (if you have this file), add the line, and then enable it. In Windows 95, you can typically find the Autoexec.bat file in the root directory of your C: drive. Open it in Windows Notepad and make the changes there.
