I am trying to clean out this computer. BTW it's my mom's so recommending a switch from XP has already been noted ;)
C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files
has crap in it that I want to delete. Its Properties window says it contains 60 files and 5 folders. However, only 15 files (and no folders) are shown in Explorer. What's the deal?
I have tried searching specifically for the files I know are in there (which I want to delete), but the searches return nothing.
I already have it set to show hidden files and folders. I even switched it to show protected OS files, but that didn't work either.
So where are the 45 missing files? How can I get to them?
