Hey there. My windows vista has disc cleanup automatically set to run.
Around every 30 days, I find my media content licenses have been deleted. I have Windows Media Player 11, which does not allow the backing up of licenses. How do I turn off the automatic Disc Cleanup feature? Or where do I find the file where licenses are kept so that I can back them up? |

I went to the task scheduler, but the disc cleanup is not scheduled to be
done automatically that I can see. Any other ideas?

There were some additional options for user "backup" or "temp" files. It was a large number (in GB). But I went ahead and used it anyway. Very bad. It deleted all my icons and program menu shortcuts. It is *NOT* recommended that you use Microsofts Disc Cleanup program. Thank goodness, I imaged my hard drive last night after installing SP1.
