Cleano cleans your temp files every time you login
Cleano is a free Windows utility that helps you keep your hard drive clean by deleting your temp files, run history, Internet explorer files, and other data. What sets Cleano apart from other utilities like CCleaner is its simple layout and a nifty little feature that lets you automatically cleanup files when you login to Windows.Cleano also happens to be a single tiny executable file, which makes this utility a perfect candidate for installation on a USB flash drive which you can use to do some basic cleaning operatings on your work and home computers, as well as the next time you visit your friends or family members who are always complaining that they're running out of space on their hard disk.

Not bad, but I'm still looking for a good replacement for IE Privacy Keeper that will run on Vista. CCleaner is close, but I'd like something that works at log-off, instead of at log-on.

Does it make the login process slower?
[]'s!

I also use IE Privacy Keeper. Unfortunately, it doesn't support current Firefox or Chrome so something more recent is still on my hunt list, too.

You know what else works, and is free? Batch files called as scheduled tasks on startup.
This one renames your existing temp, in case you're a packrat and need to save some files that shouldn't be there, but are. Because you renamed it, you can delete it when done (no pointers during your new session).
@echo off
FOR /F "TOKENS=2-4 DELIMS=- " %%F IN ('DATE /T') DO (
SET YYYY=%%F
SET MM=%%G
SET DD=%%H
)
REM debug statements
REM echo %YYYY%
REM echo %MM%%
REM echo %DD%
FOR /F "TOKENS=1-2 DELIMS=: " %%F IN ('TIME /t') DO (
SET HR=%%F
SET MN=%%G
)
set fullstamp=%YYYY%_%MM%_%DD%_%HR%%MN%
REM debug statement
REM echo %fullstamp%
set newtemp=temp_%fullstamp%
REM this is the volume for tempfiles, pagefiles
f:
cd\
rename temp %newtemp%
mkdir temp
You can easily rewrite it to this:
@echo off
f:
cd\
rmdir /s /q temp
mkdir temp
The solution extends to any subdirs you can find. Graphical, no. Fast, yes.
