    Unnecessary DLL's cleaner

    Hi!

    Due to install and uninstall many applications, the system performance decreases and sometimes strange errors occur due to the amount of unnecessary DLL files in our system. Therefore, anyone knows some good program that shows the DLL's associated to such application, even this last one is not running? That would be great, 'cause we can delete those DLL's and increase the system performance.

    Tks,

    Blankrice

    I use Clnsys and found it works great. It will put the unnecessary DLL's in a folder just in case you need to put them back (I never had to yet), then you can delete them weeks later if you want. I recommend it.

    EasyCleaner from http://www.saunalahti.fi/tonihele
    Patch for ME , http://newlife-win98.server101.com/easycleaner_info.htm

    Don't use EasyCleaner Duplicate files unless you really know what your doing .
    Below is a safer way of removing duplicate files . http://members.cnx.net/reboot http://206.161.202.65/forum/showthre...?threadid=8547
    99 % of the duplicates are in two folders.
    c:\windows\sysbckup and c:\windows\options\cabs
    You can delete everything from sysbckup except the 5 or more files with a
    .cab extention (they're your registry backups for scanreg) and a
    couple of others that it won't let you .

    If you've got the original Windows CD or floppies with the cab files on ( not the restore
    version ) , I personally delete the whole options\cabs folder completely .
