Hi,
I installed XP SP1 last night. I thought everything went well.
Now I have discovered my prefetch folder is gone. I have searched for it but its nowhere to be found. I havent installed anything after SP1. I did do a defrag after the installation.
I am not the only one with this problem.
Anyone have any ideas?
I'm running XP pro.
 
Yes, PREFETCH disappeared on my computer also. It doesn't seemed to have been renamed or to have been converted into a hidden folder.

Also running XP Pro.
 
\windows\prefetch is alive and well on my systems after sp1 upgrade.
 
I appreciate all you comments. But telling me you have a prefetch folder dont help me any. I know not everyone has this problem.
I know of at least 5 people with the same problem now.
I need a fix LOL, anyone got any suggestions?
 
Is prefetch definitily enabled? What is the registry value for 'Enable Prefetcher' at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\PrefetchParameters ? The default value should be 3.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
