Hi,I've disabled sys restore and uninstalled pchsetup.exe but can't seem to get rid of the RESTORE folder (hidden).Everytime I reboot,it get's bigger and bigger,so I assume that sys restore hasn't been disabled,although I have checked the box to disable it.
Anyone know how I can get rid of the RESORE folder?
ANy help,much appreciated.
Regards,
Matt

boot up using a win me boot disk,
goto the windows folder, run smartdrv.exe
(you will need a disk cache for this, or else it will take hours to delete the folder, g,)
then got c:\
type deltree /y _restore
use that command very carefully!, i give no warrently if misused, vbg, you could serously harm your system, if you used it to delete prograam files (progra~1) or your windows folders.

Hi Tony,
have i got this right:
1.boot using Win ME start up disk
2.change directory to c:WINDOWS
3.type: SMARTDRV.EXE
4.then go to C:\
5.Type DELTREE /Y_RESTORE

IS that right?
Also,what is a disk cache?
Thanks again Tony.

you've got it =)

im sure someone can give you a better description of a disk cache, because i don't have a good one.
basically it uses physical ram, to speed up disk access.
it uses about 2 by default, but you can specify a larger ammount.
when running windows 9x/ME itself, uses a cache by default, its somewhat internal, so you don't have to load anything, but for dos, it has to be done manually (or via an autoexec.bat file.
