Try it from a MS/DOS Command prompt, just to see if it's there and you're not seeing
it for some reason:
Start / Programs / Accessories / Command Prompt
Cut and paste the following to export the Compress Old FIles keys under VolumeCaches:
regedit /E CompressOldFiles.reg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches\Compress
Old Files"
If you have trouble pasting this into the command line, you can create a simple batch
(.bat) file to run it from using Notepad.
Open notepad, paste the above into it.
Navigate to My Documents
Click File / Save as.
Set Save as type: to All files
Set the FIle name as: expreg.bat
Now run it:
Start / Run
Enter command and click OK.
Change to the My Documents directory (Folder):
cd "C:\Documents and Settings\youruseridhere\My Documents"
type in regexp and press enter
Verify the exported reg file is there:
type regexp.reg
Mine looked like this before I deleted everything under Compress Old Files:
