Solution: I'm assuming that I'd need to first take ownership then change the permissions to give full control.

Assume I have (under 64bit Win 7) a big program installation with one main *.exe file and lots of *.dlls.
It seems to me that some but not all of these *.dlls need a registration (by regsvr32) which is done typically at installation time.
Some other *.dlls seem to need NO such registration but...

An investigation of my 64bit Win 7 systems shows that the folder
C:\Windows\assembyl\NativeImages_v2.0.50727_64\Temp\
has almost 12 GB content. I have never seen such a big space occupation before (for a Windows "Temp")
directory. I must have bloated in the last weeks.

Is hiberfil.sys always automatically on the same partition as pagefile.sys?
If not: How can I tell Win 7 that it should be this way?
Or alternatively: How can I tell Win 7 that hiberfil.sys should be on partition D: ?

Any way to delete Windows 7 Ultimate bloatware? There are loads of files and applications that I do not use, and getting rid of these unnecessary files would give in a nicer feel. A removal method would be good for Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. Any suggestions? I've tried the "Take ownership" method...
