Norton SystemWorks [OPTIMIZE UNMOVABLES - 01/19/2000]
"OPTIMIZE UNMOVABLES
There are some files on your disk you shouldn't optimize, because the
potential damage if there's a system malfunction during optimization
makes moving them around not worth the risk. Norton Speed Disk makes
it convenient to select Read Only, Hidden, and System files, which
could cause system-level problems if moved during optimization. But
you may have your own reasons for keeping other files immobile, too.
Select Norton Utilities from the Norton SystemWorks 2000 Integrator,
then Improve Performance and the Speed Disk button. On the opening
screen, click Properties, Options.
Select the letter of the drive you wish to configure and click
Customize. Under the Unmovables tab, you can put checkmarks in the
boxes next to Read Only, Hidden, and System to immobilize files with
those attributes.
Then, in the File Specification field, type the full path and name of
any other file you want to keep in place. To browse for files, click
the folder icon to the right of the box.
Use a wild card, such as an asterisk followed by a file extension, to
designate a type of file--for example, *.dat or *.ini--and click OK,
Add. Alternatively, type the path to a folder and use *.* to specify
all files in that folder. Click OK when you're done." |
