    I seem to have a lot of temp files (technically, files of documents I work in) that don't get erased, even after using those two programs.

    See, for example, this image, taken just after using both:

    This isn't a major problem, but it just seems strange that with Word not running, and after numerous reboots (one document was dated to December) those files are still there. Its a minor annoyance, I know, but still I'd like to get rid of them if I can.

    Disk Cleanup will probably zap em. If not, just do it manually.

    Make new registry file named RemoveTemp.
    Open notepad and paste this info and finally save as *.reg file.After that you will be able to remove temp files.Just right click on RecycleBin and chose Remove Temp Files

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\shell\Delete]

    @= "&Remove Temp Files"
