Let’s create a Batch file to clean your computer
This tip can be used on any version of Windows from Windows XP through Windows 10.
Back in the days of yore — i.e. DOS, batch files were used by geeks to all sorts of things – including some bad things too. Today Batch files are still as powerful as ever — and very easy to make. All you need to make one is Notepad, a little code, and a little patience.
So open Notepad right now. Press and hold down the Windows Key — then press the R key. In the command line type Notepad and press Enter. Now that Notepad is open copy and paste the following (or if you’re a masochist you can type it all in) line:
c:\windows\system32\cleanmgr.exe /dc
Now, and this is VERY important! Make sure you select “All files” in Notepad’s Save as type dialog. If you leave it set as “Text Documents”- your batch file won’t work, because text files cannot execute. (See the helpful image below.)
Now that you have Save as type “All files” chosen, save your file as cleanup.bat . Saving it to your desktop is highly convenient because you can drag it from the desktop to your start menu or wherever you want it. The next time you want to clean up the junk files from your computer, just click on the Batch file you just created. Amaze your friends! Even your enemies!

EB & TC, cool tip! Thank you both. Food for thought, why not create a shortcut or just pin the Windows Disk Cleaner to one’s personal preference!
