Windows 10: How do I open WebCacheV01.dat?

Hi Microsoft,


I need help in viewing this computer's history. My son deleted his history after SOMETHING, so I need to recover it. I tried opening WebCacheV01.dat, but it's being used by Host Process for Windows Tasks. Is there any way to open this file, like force opening?

:)

Disable WebCacheV01.dat


Hi all, especially Sujay I hope.

I have just updated Windows 10 to the Aniversary version.
I have followed all the steps set out by Sujay to eliminate Windows – Continuous Disk Write + WebCacheV01.dat + V01.log – Issue

I have disabled “CacheTask“. To find this, open Task Scheduler from Administrative Tools, navigate to Microsoft > Windows > Wininet.
And I have eliminated the GUID
{3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}

But I still have WebCacheV01.dat in this folder: C:\Users\XXXXXXX\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WebCache

And this file is 26MB and always come up when I run CCleaner.
Any help would be much appreciated to totally eliminate this.

Oh, one other thing, if I open REGEDIT and search for the GUID
{3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}
I only find it in:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WOW6432Node\CLSID\{0358b920-0ac7-461f-98f4-58e32cd89148}
Predetermined Type REG_SZ Data Wininit Cache Task Object
AppID Type REG_SZ {3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}


I would be gratefull for any help possible

 

Disable WebCacheV01.dat


There is an app called WebCacheKiller.exe which will now repeatedly kill this file. This kills and shows the webcachev01.dat file.
