| | It crashes when I try to do disk cleanup on system files with "Disk Space Manager for Windows has stopped working". That's when I run it as an administrator too. |

| | Well the only other option I can think of (other than a clean install) would be a Repair Install which works as an In-Place Upgrade and should move all non-essential files/folder to a new Windows.old folder (including those that are in the current Windows.old folder). This will then allow you to run the Disk Cleanup app to remove the windows.old folder.  TipYou may want to try renaming the Windows.old folder to another name so that the contents of it are also moved to the new windows.old folder. This will prevent a second .old folder being created |

| | I had something like this happen when I first installed Windows 7, after using takeownership on either Documents And Settings, or Application Data...I can't remember which. I ended up deleting the account and making a new one to rectify the problem. |

| | Cross Linked If the files are cross linked this may fix them. Boot to a dos prompt and enter chkdsk /f. The system may make you schedule it for the next boot. So you will have to reboot. Maybe not. |

| | Been There Seeker: That happened to me in /Appdata dir. I navigated to the first what I considered copy of the directoy and deleted the rest of the ladder and everything came out fine. I also ran check disk to clean up the indexes. |
