- Show quoted text -Generally the prefetch can be dumped as a little
known tweak for additional performance. Usually this is done response
to a large amount of data that may have accumulated as windows
occaisionally will do in this file. It's cool no wories - think of it
like yet another temp file or yet another mem cache. If it is a valid
file then a hard copy exists on disk and windows will auto "fetch" the
next time it needs it. ............... In short I recomend to open
the prefetch folder select all contents and delete.
