Hi Paul,
Let me assure you 100% that there is no way a normal
Microsoft Windows defrag on a healthy system will remove
your anti-virus software. Anyone who says otherwise
requires a full frontal lobotomy.
As regards Disk Cleanup, in 99.99% of cases, it as perfectly
OK to accept what the system suggests be deleted.
The one possible exception might be the Recycle Bin where,
if you have deleted files, you may have second thoughts as
to whether you might really still want those files. There
may be other files listed, but generally unchecked. You can
leave these, but feel free to ask here if you want to know
what they are.
George Bell.

Subject: [jaws-uk] more on disc clean up and defrag=20
Hi all and thanks for the responses to my original E-mail.
I am however slightly concerned about the fact that
antivirus software may have to be removed whilst carying out
a defrag.
I don't have a disc for this as a friend of mine put my
antivirus on for me.
Also when doing a discclean up recently, I got some kind of
message asking me if I wanted to delete some files but as I
am not sure what they are, I clicked No.
I have just read a posting to this list claiming that they
did a defrag without any need to remove their antivirus and
other things and it seemed to work for them.
Also I presume JAWS will announce when this is finished even
if it will take a good few hours to do.
Also is there any way I can check on it'sprogress without
any need to reset the defrag as I may well have been doing
the other day.
Hope you can help with any or all of the above.
Regards
Paul.
