There are a lot of temp files with different extensions. Those .bak files are temporary
files, so you can locate and delete WININIT.BAK.
.bak - Old file; when a new version of a program comes along, sometimes it will
rename the old version with an .bak extension.
In fact, you might want to run scan disk to correct errors and defrag. First do this:
Go to Find - Files or folders - in the named box type: *.tmp and choose Edit - select
all - File - delete. Do the same for *.chk. Then type: temp. Empty the contents of
the C:\Windows\temp folder. Delete this folder - C:\Windows\Applog; it will be re-created
at bootup, but it'll be empty. Empty Recycle bin
That DLL tweak is something to help improve performance. It's not a necessity, just
a suggestion. You just create that new subkey according to those instructions.
