Hi,

@Valuater: Instead of including the funcs from Autoit install directory, just copy the functions into your script. This way Autoit will always use this functions and you are always compatible.

Hay Valuater

You're getting a bit slake 3 days and no updates.... LOL

I havn't had a good run with the script yet as my computer is warning of an over heating when I run it.

(NOT script related just my poor computer cracking up when it's put under pressure)

But the script looks good. :-)

Well I'm glad you posted, because I've not noticed this before.

If this can help my rusty old banger of a computer machine I'll be very happy.

I'll post results in the morning.

Looks good, there a couple of function that I would like to add into my logon script, I did notice that you cleaning temp file routing might be improved if I may, this is what I use in my logon script.

expandcollapse popup

Func temp_clean()
    Switch _OSGet()
        Case "XP Mode"
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5")
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files")
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Cookies")
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Local Settings\History")
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Recent")
            EmptyFolder(@AppDataDir & "\Microsoft\Office\Recent")
            EmptyFolder(@UserProfileDir & "\Local Settings\Temp")

    EndSwitch
    EmptyFolder(@TempDir)
EndFunc ;==>temp_clean

Func EmptyFolder($FolderToDelete)
    $Debug = 0 ;0 or 1
    $AllFiles = _FileListToArray($FolderToDelete, "*", 0)
    If $Debug Then ConsoleWrite("-->" & $FolderToDelete & @CRLF)

            $crt = FileGetTime($FolderToDelete & "\" & $AllFiles[$i], 1)
            If $crt[2] = @MDAY And $crt[0] = @YEAR And $crt[1] = @MON Then
                If $Debug Then
                    ConsoleWrite($FolderToDelete & "\" & $AllFiles[$i] & " --> Today's File, Skipping!" & @CRLF)
                EndIf
                ContinueLoop
            EndIf
            $delete = FileDelete($FolderToDelete & "\" & $AllFiles[$i])

        Next
    EndIf

Func _OSGet()
    Switch @OSVersion
        Case "WIN_7"
            Return "Vista Mode"
        Case "WIN_XP"
            Return "XP Mode"
        Case "Win_2000"
            Return "XP Mode"
        Case "WIN_VISTA"
            Return "Vista Mode"
        Case "WIN_2008"
            Return "Server Mode"

            Return "Server Mode"
        Case Else
            Return "unknown"
            Exit
    EndSwitch
    _ArchGet()
EndFunc ;==>_OSGet

Hope this is useful to you. Its quit simple if you have any questions or comments please feel free. The EmptyFolder($FolderToDelete) was got from somewhere on this site I feel very embarrassed as I do not know who did it, it's very useful and solved some issues for me namely deleting temp files created that day, but as your is basically a shutdown script you may not need this.

oops, forgot about this.

When I finally realized you had to start it from the tray and did so.

It took about 40 minutes to complete on my machine, first run.

The speed change is enough for me to notice it.

Thanks for this I'll continue to use it.

EDIT:

Second run immediately after (almost) took 25 minutes, with defrag boot files and defrag c taking up most of that time.

Thanks for the feedback John...

You demonmstrate the exact reasoning in making this time-taking proggy a "shutdown" system. That way no-one has to sit and wait for the benifit.

Thanks again,

Valuater

After a little testing... 1.2.0

I added ProcessSetPriority() and it speeded the program up immensely.

*** NOTE *** It must be compiled for the ProcessSetPriority() to work!!

Hey I just ran this today. Wow. It took 20 odd minutes to run on my Sony laptop running Vista HP. This is a fantastic 'shut down wrapper utility', I no longer have enough time between the 'power button press' and when my PC is actually fully loaded and 'ready', to get a cup of coffee.. Not only has 'start up' time drastically increased, but my Firefox browser loads now in 10 - 15 seconds rather than the minute and a half at least that it used to take.. (17 addons..)

Thanks for helping me by writing and sharing this. I plan on trying soon this new version you just posted.

[Valuater]

Sounds great computerguy...

Just added a few more additons....

New version uses system restore rather than reg back-up. It also shows/records the amount of files removed in megabites.

[Valuater]

1 more update...

Getting the size of the files on the hard drive was taking to much time and I changed to an Object() code that is much fastrer

8)

[Valuater]

I had to change this....

$Cleaned = Round(Get_Free() - $Drive_Start / 1024 / 1024, 2)

It was not calculating????

I replaced it with this....

$Drive_End = Get_Free()
        $Cleaned = $Drive_End - $Drive_Start
        $FCleaned = Round($Cleaned/1024/1024, 2)
