BeantwoordenVerwijderenDamn, I use it all the time. I have a lotta crap on my computer xD
I only have a 160gb main drive, and my media drives are expertly organized, so I might do this.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenStill don't even have Windows 7... got XP from like 2005... thinking of an upgrade soon.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNot working for me ^^
BeantwoordenVerwijderenwill I see any difference?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIndexing also exists for windows XP I believe
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThere really isn't any reason to have this on unless you can't organize your files well.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI don't know too much about this, but it's pretty interesting. Followed!
