Re: IE 6.0 on XP Not Deleting History Use notepad, copy this text into a new notepad.
@echo on
cd %homedrive%%homepath%
rd /s/q locals~1\tempor~1
rd /s/q locals~1\temp\tempor~1
rd /s/q cookies
rd /s/q temp\cookies
rd /s/q locals~1\history
rd /s/q locals~1\temp\history
rd /s/q recent
md recent
rd /s/q locals~1\temp
md locals~1\temp
Then save as "cleanxp.cmd" and put it in your start folder in programs. This format works for xp only!
Someone else shared this but I forgot whom, thanx to that person I can pass it along....
(you can rem out lines you don't want, like I save my cookies and delete them with another program that saves a select few, so I started the two lines with cookies with "rem " basically removing them from the process)

kudos:1 | thegrinch, I copied the information you posted, but instead of saving as cleanxp.cmd I saved it as clean.bat, also I didn't add it to my startup folder. I just opened Batchrun, and added a few commands, So that I could run the bat. file without rebooting.
This way, I wont have to remember to remove it from the startup folder, and I could add it to my task manger and have it ran once a week, or more depending on when I want it to run.
What I added was, explorer.exe is killed, 1.5 seconds later the clean.bat is ran, 4 seconds later explorer is started, so the files are deleted, and no reboot is required.

kudos:1 | It's terrific that you've worked around the startup issue.
Should this also work on Win2K, and would you mind uploading your version (for us coding illiterates)? | |
