Hmm....
Windows strikes again. Today i noticed my system doesn't have any space left to save even a zip of pictures from internet. After a slight investigation i was sure that windows is doing something goofy stuff. My system's C:\Windows folder was taking 9.10 GB of HDD space. After 30 minutes i am able to reduce it to 5 GB which is still big but i can live with it right now.
So following are the step which might help other also. Deleting the folders can safe space but do it on your own risk as it can lead you from no turning back stage
1. Delete "C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations"
2. Delete "C:\Windows\$NtUninstall*****" folders These folders are hidden...
3. Delete "C:\Windows\$hf_mig$"
4. Check for file "C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP" if present delete.
5. Delete "C:\Windows\Prefetch"
I had to check now another folder called C:\Windows\Installer this folder holds the unistallation files of application you install on your computer. But if you manually delete the applications then MBs of space is occupied by uninstallation files will remain in this folder for eternity. just use following command if you have installed the window installer cleap up utility already other wise install. After installation go to programfiles folder and in there you will get Windows Installer Clean Up folder. In that there is a command line tool which can be used to remove orphan uninstallation files from C:\Windows\Installer. Type the command given on command prompt once you are in same directory on command prompt.
C:\Program Files\Windows Installer Clean Up>MsiZap.exe G!
this command will helped me free 100s of MB space on my disk.
Following are few more thing which helped me to gain 6GB space from 4GB. I stopped the restore points. Use Control Panel, System, System Restore. After this i moved page file as system managed from a high value saved by me last year when i had enough space. :) hehehehe
Ok now i have enough space to happily write this blog... Hope this help others also..

The guy named Raja !..
Yeah.. Some people have guessed it correctly.. I have a very good frd whose name also start from R.. but writing about him is something will take 4-5 blogs and then also i can't finish that. But this blog is about people i met in mundane moments, let me clear the meaning of the title of this blog. This blog is about how Raja named people has a good impact on my life not about A Guy named Raja.
One more important thing is why i took this much long time to write this specific blog. Actually i was studying the IT Act 2000 and IT Act 2008. So i will not lend up in any trouble again. Anyway last time also i was safe but i removed that blog "A Company without name" because i didn't wanted to hurt anyone's feelings through my blog. Sole intention of my blogs are to share my exp. with others [not only to a specific group].
Very first encounter with Raja named guy was when i was of 10-11 year old. I was traveling towards my grand pa's place. This guy met me in bus. He was coming back from Dubai and being naughty enough i got attention from fellow passengers from bus. He played along with me for an hour and introduced me with my first foreign currency. Yeap i got 10 Dirham from him.
Next guy named rajai met was around 4 year ago. Yes he is the one most of you were waiting to read about. What i am going to write about him. There is nothing new what i want to write as i know him very little only on the professional front i come to know about him. Very first time when i met him he had to take my interview. That time i wasn't very good in communicating and a bit less in confidence. But i don't know how come i cracked the interview and got the job.
Later during the probation period once i told Raja i don't want to work anymore here. That time he taught me how to fight till the victory. He sat with me for next 2-3 hours and shown me anything is not impossible. [Ya some people can think i am just writing, but this is what my first impression about Raja]. Later There were many time when my office mates ask me to get some permissions from Raja by saying "Go ask your brother". And i never felt bad as this is the way i use feel about Raja. There was another incident when we in office were talking about how bad i feel in being the company and in bangalore. One of my frd in office wrote a mail and shoot that to Raja from my mail-id about my resignation [some 1 and half year ago from when i actually left that company]. That time also i just have to tell raja there was a mistake on adding mail address at To field. If it would be any other management person it could be a big scene.
I never like when he use to utter the F word. This i told him also. I never liked when he use to be like other management guys. I don't know whether i was wrong in thinking that he is different from others or he was one of them. I learnt from him many good things which are helping me till now.
The biggest reason i left that company was him. As i started feeling like i have lost the mentor-ship. His guidance became limited and i had to interact with someone not at all likable person. I have observed that during that period he was a bit diff. a bit tense, rash, angry which wasn't his attribute as par my knowledge. Hope if he is feeling any problem soon those will resolve and he will become the same. Guiding and teaching newbies. I heard from some of new company fellows that it's reverse of my exp. for them as being a newbie in that company. I hope they will get the same raja as i got to know. Where i use to talk him as freely as i can talk with any of my frd, i hope others can do the same.
Yes i know many of you might not find this blog as interesting as my other blogs might be. But this blog was actually scheduled after my blog "A Company without name.." but due to some reason it got delayed and lost the impact on readers. Anyway better late than never.

Overall i consider him a gentleman. He taught me how get and handle a true feedback.One of my frd asked me you should have balls to write about raja [Second in this blog]. Then i thought why i should fear for truth. Only fear is he shouldn't feel bad as he is a imp. person in my life who taught me many things for good.
