    Does this also work for Win 11? I want disk cleaner to remove downloaded content from Whatsapp´s local storage of pictures and videos but so far no luck...

    I tried editing the REG_EXPAND_SZ "Folder" to
    %TEMP%|%WINDIR%\Temp|%WINDIR%\Logs|%WINDIR%\System32\LogFiles|C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Packages\5 319275A.WhatsAppDesktop_cv1g1gvanyjgm\LocalState\shared\transfers

    Any idea what could be wrong?

    Thanks!

    Edit... had to change LastAccess to 0 to see the effect and not have to wait for 7 days... sorry...

Disk cleanup left the Windows.old folder

Title. I can't get rid of it. It has survived me doing the disk cleanup twice now as well as reboots (figured it was just stuck visually in the file manager). How can I get rid of it.
