Removing SP2 temp files
Ok I've done this before, but I can't remember if these are the files or not....don't want to have to reinstall windows. These are located in C:\
Can I just delete the alphanumeric files so I only have the ATI, Docs and Settings, Program Files folders? Oh yea this is XP Home, I had Pro but I couldn't use my HP restore disks :\

The numbered files are uninstall data for programs - THey may be needed for system restores etc.
__________________Just hide them. Right Click > Properties > Tick "hidden"> Apply to all folders you want to hide Then > Tools > Folder Options > View > Do not show hidden files  Hope this helps
