Windows 98 Disk and File Management
Individually Remove Files with Disk Cleanup
SUMMARY: Tips for Windows 98's Disk Cleanup tool.
When Windows 98 notices that one of your hard drives is running out of room, it will automatically bring up a dialog box, allowing you to invoke the Disk Cleanup wizard. Instead of letting Windows 98 remove all of the files it 'thinks' is save to delete, when the list of file categories appears, click on a category and click the "View Files" button. This will let you look at each individual file and decide whether or not it needs to be removed. If a file can be safely deleted, just click on the files to remove, hold down the SHIFT key, and press the delete key.
