i went to the control panel and clicked on performance and maintenance. From there I clicked on "free up space on hard drive". When doing that I choose the (C
folder to free up space in and the the item that were not used everday got compressed. The icons still show but some of them ( the imporant ones) now have writings under them that are in blue then the standard black color. I can not uncompress them using winrar becuase they do not look zipped like a folder or the winwar icon. When clicking on them a small window opens that asks me "what do I want to open them with?" Nothing will open it.
