Solve : Excess Windows Folder Files? (XP)?

Answer» <html><body><strong>My windows <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/folder-246959" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FOLDER">FOLDER</a> has over 33,000 files (over 10 gigs). Does this sound right?<br/><br/>The reason I ask is that when I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/turn-767121" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TURN">TURN</a> on my machine it is very slow for about 20 minutes with local stuff. Opening a txt file in notepad can take 30secs to a minute if it's the first thing I open. The internet seems unaffected. <br/><br/>After 20-30 minutes everything is up to speed and there are no problems.<br/><br/>I run <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/free-240724" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FREE">FREE</a> AVG, commercial Malwarebytes, and MRT regularly.<br/><br/>Thanks in advance for any info.</strong>Try a diagnostic startup and let us know what happens (open msconfig and on the startup tab choose "diagnostic startup" - uncheck everything - and reboot).<strong>Hi Allen. Thank you for the response.<br/><br/>The <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/results-2643" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RESULTS">RESULTS</a> were an empty tool bar - except for that msconfig panel. Everything local loaded very fast, but the computer has been on for a while. I had no internet. I assume the necessary files weren't loaded for that in the diagnostic mode. <br/><br/>Other than that everything appeared normal.</strong><strong>Whoops! I forgot. There was nothing to uncheck there. Did you mean for me to APPLY diagnostic startup then go to the START tab and uncheck everything there? I did not do that.</strong>Reboot to normal mode. Download and run Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel (<a href="http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml">http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml</a>).<br/><br/>Uncheck all startup items<br/><br/>Reboot. What happens?Is this 64 bit Windows ? ?<strong>32 bit, Patio.<br/><br/>****<br/><br/>Allen, let me cancel the help request. It's not much of a problem, and won't be any next month, as I'm handing this machine down to a needy person next month and purchasing a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/new-1114486" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NEW">NEW</a> one. It's about time. This one is over 3 years old now.<br/><br/>Thanks again to everyone.</strong></body></html>
