Doesn't booting into safe mode work?

Oh - Just thought - If it's because you can't see it, you need to type the address into the address bar in explorer - Microsoft hide it even if you click "View hidden files and folders"

I found the way.

Run "sfc.exe /purgecache"

Panther's right. Just run "sfc.exe /purgecache". Or you can manually remove all files in %WINDIR%\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache, but the folder itself cannot be deleted.

to slim down the windows folder, i suppose. it's not necessary, but i like the reassurance of having my backup dlls. plus it helps with driver installations and whatnot. you never know when you might need it.
