I wrote a small program that does this.

- Install Microsoft .Net 2.0 SP2 on your computer.
- Make a full backup of your computer.
- Right-Click the app and click 'Run this program as administrator'.
- Wait, it will take a few minutes to run, even on my fast computer. Its scanning your entire drive.
- Review the files to delete, you can select only the ones you want to.

Some files may not be able to be deleted. You may have to download the Take Ownership of this File batch file found below:

I would advise you to only remove a few of them at a time. Then run a few checks here and there.

dtsouers,

Thank you! This is an excellent utility, it works well.

Any chance you could change selection of individual entries from double-click to single-click and add shift-select so it wasn't necessary to select each entry individually?

It would be nice if it would allow to specify the drive which should be searched.
