I don't know a lot outside of a little hands-on experience with Batch programming, but I have a VBS file that runs a batch that I have in the Task Scheduler to clear out my temporary files on my Windows 8.1 laptop. Unfortunately, I'm still looking for a way to delete the folders that are also created in the Temp areas that I don't need, since they are not deleted during this. The VBS allows me to run the batch file in silent mode. My results after a lot of testing and guessing are below. The Task Scheduler is set to run the VBS at log in, then restart every so often so that I can do things without issues that could come up if the temp was cleared, but also so that my temp files that I don't need get cleared out and don't slow down my computer. Here are the contents that I have in my VBS Script: Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")WshShell.Run chr(34) & "C:\ProgramPath\CleanTemp.bat" & chr(34), OSet WshShell = Nothing Here is the contents of the batch that was mentioned in the VBS: @Echo off del /S /Q "%temp%\*.*" del /S /Q "C:\Windows\temp\*.*" del /S /Q "C:\Windows\Prefetch\*"

(Author's Note: I did do some research throughout the LTT site, and did not see any posts with the actual date. If a post exists, I have missed it in my searching and apologize for the duplicate post.) Well, I had the Windows 10 upgrade program pop up letting me know that I could reserve my copy of Windows 10 a few weeks ago. At the end though, I saw a date, but neglected to look. After a little digging, I found an FAQ from Microsoft (below) that says what day people can get Windows 10. Here is an excert from the article: "Microsoft is making Windows 10 available as free upgrade for qualified Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Phone 8.1 devices. It will be available starting July 29, 2015; people can reserve their free upgrade today. You only have until July 29, 2016 to take advantage of this offer. Once you upgrade, you have Windows 10 for free on that device." Full Article: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-faq?ocid=win10_auxapp_context
