Managing Programs To Free Disk Space
Both methods usually remove most program files associated with the
application. However, documents created with and linked to the program
may remain after uninstallation.
Application remnant cleaner detects a program's uninstallation. When the
program's uninstallation is complete, a list of files not removed from your
computer associated with the program displays. At such time, you may
choose to delete, shred, recycle, compress, or move the remnant files or
documents created with the program to a different location.
Application Remnant Cleaner settings
ARC, by default, is configured to run automatically when you uninstall a
program. To configure this setting:
1 From the Advanced Tasks list, select Change my QuickClean settings.
2 Click Application Remnant Cleaner.
3 From the ARC settings window check or clear the Run Application
Remnant Cleaner automatically when uninstalling check box to set your
preference.
Analyze folders using Folder Browser
"Folder Browser" is a feature used to analyze the volume of the contents of
drives, directories, subdirectories, and folders within your computer's hard
disk. You may use this information to identify folders and their contents that
are candidates for removal.
Folder Browser displays information in a format similar to that of Windows
Explorer. There are two panes. The left pane displays a tree view of the folders
within your computer. The right pane displays the contents of the folder
selected in the left pane.
The right pane provides the following information:
n Name: The name(s) of the folder(s) within the selected drive, directory,
or subdirectory.
n Size: The volume of the folder; including immediate files.
n Total Size: The total volume of the folder including immediate/direct
files, sub-folders and the contents of the sub-folders.
n The units of measurement are bytes, kilobytes (Kb), and Megabytes
(Mb).
It is possible for a folder to have a size of zero and a total size greater than zero.
This situation demonstrates that folder contains sub-folders but no immediate
files.
