Windows 10: System Information Question

I'm trying to clone to a new SSD and during the process of checking the system I ran a system information report. Can anyone tell me if I should be worried by the TPM and the PCR7 info?>

I have had to restore my current drive following multiple crashes from my Restore USB and system image to get to this point where it appears to be running OK but don't trust the drive anymore.

Are you able to follow them?

System volume information folder questions


First question, the winre.wim file is at 96% fragmented and I cannot defrag the system information folder. How can I get that fragmented file to defrag?

Second question, I have unchecked the hidden system folder so I can try and delete the system volume folder, which didn't work either, now I recheck the settings so the hidden files are hidden but now the system information folder is still showing, it won't go back to hidden, now what?

Thanks for and help.

 

Removing errant files in the "System Volume Information" folder under Windows 10.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your response.

I suggest you to first stop Volume Shadow Copy service and try to remove the files and check. Follow the steps provided below:

Step 1: Stop Volume Shadow Copy service

• 
  Press Windows logo Key + R key.
  
• 
  Type services.msc.
  
• 
  Search for Volume Shadow Copy service.
  
• 
  Right click on it and select
  Stop.
  

Now, take ownership of the System volume Information folder and then try to delete its contents.

Step 2: File permissions.

• Right click on System volume Information folder.
• Select Properties.
• Go to Security tab.
• Select the user name.
• Click on Edit button.
• Under permission to Authenticated user, check on full control.
• Click on Apply and OK button.
