Re: System Cleanup - a discussion please

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Judging what's garbage for everyone is tough, especially when any program could put temp files anywhere they want (somewhat).

If all programs just used the common Windows Temp folder it'd be easy and Disk Cleanup would do it. Or if all programs offered a way to clean up their own temp files that'd be great to.

But they don't, and what can MS do to enforce that all other developers do this? Nothing. I think the best (only?) answer would be for users to complain to the authors of the software they use and tell them to offer a way to do it, or use a common temp folder, in their products.
