azagahl Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 Disk cleanup keeps complaining that my swap partition is full - it's full because the drive is 1 gb and the swap file is 0.99 gb.Is the best way to get rid of this warning to just uninstall disk cleanup?
oftentired Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 I would disable the warningHow to Disable "Low on Disk Space" Warning in Windows 98Description of the Disk Cleanup Tool
horsecharles Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 and don't know if you'd want to or not 'lower the %' in your recycle bin settings......not for nothing, but that crap cleaner just does so many more things than the MS cleaner(if i understood right)-- & way faster too.... http://www.ccleaner.com/
oftentired Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Well on that partition which appears to be used exclusively for the swap file I would assume the garbage can is already set to zero. If not it should be.
azagahl Posted January 28, 2005 Author Posted January 28, 2005 The recycle bin is completely disabled on the system.Also, I don't have a "Settings" panel in Disk Cleanup so the posted tip doesn't apply. I'm not sure why I don't have Settings - I have 98 SE, 98 plus!, and 98SE2ME (updated files from ME) installed.
horsecharles Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 AZA:NO, not from disk cleanup itelf-- from the properties of the partition-- so that it then tells Disk Cleanup what to clean & how:In either Windows Exploder or MyCompuker, right-click your drive letter, select Properties, in the middle-bottom-right of the box click Disk Cleanup, then on the top click More Options......HTH........

horsecharles Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 azagahl:Maybe 98SE2ME has caused this?You may be right-- my setting's disappeared also-- either that or the SESP.....But..... if you have X-Setup, you can still adjust that from this location:System\File System\Windows 9x/ME Options\Misc\Low Disk SpaceHhhmm......
