Hiyah!
I'd previously done Standard scans. Just done the above, took 1hour on 2,000,000 clusters, but now my Dell WinME laptop fairly zips through stuff. Internet speeded up, file and packages work far better. I must have had the breaks on my machine for quite some time. This is now changed! Thought I'd offer this tip for those of us with, well, constipated systems. Oh yes I did do a defrag - but this didn't make the difference. It was this "Thorough" scan that made the DellBoy zoom. I don't know what it did, but the effect is truly remarkable.
I ran the "Thorough" Scan while in full Windows. I've had a warning to run "Thorough" while boot up, but this was taking an age. So I ran it after I got to my Desktop Screen.
CAVEAT:However you use this this approach at your own discretion. It worked for me, of course, I can't say what it will do for you.
Regards,
Grazie
