Windows XP – Die Größe des SFC Ordners genau anpassen

After you have cleaned up the System File Protection folder as described in this trick, you can now limit it to a certain size for the future. I recommend a maximum size of 100 MB.

Click one after the other on Start > Execute and type it into the command line sfc /cachesize=100 in. After clicking Enter, the limit for this folder is set and you no longer need to worry about precious storage space.

You can find more information about Windows file protection in this knowledge base article: Beschreibung des Features „Windows-Dateischutz“

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in the 90s. His helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (back then this is what Sandro looked like). He then went on to write elsewhere, such as for PC-Praxis, Computer Bild and PCWorld in the USA. Microsoft also poached him from us. Now Sandro is back, finally sharing his tweaks here again. For a stress-free digital everyday life. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
