"Compress Old Files" doesn't change after running Windows Cleanup Saturday, September 5, 2009 at 7:26 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jacjon (1 messages posted) I run Windows Cleanup everyday and formerly it would show only a few files that needed cleaning up. Now it always shows over 50,000 files in the Compress Old Files category and this never changes, even after running cleanup. Why does this not empty out? (And, yes, it is checked off in the box to the left.) How can I empty it manually, so I don't see it every time I run Cleanup?
