Hi, All

One of my users clicked "Disk Cleanup" button in drive properties window, and w2k compressed some of files throughout the drive.

I want to decompress all files in all subdirectories, but drive properties has no "compress contents to save disk space" checkbox, and every folder has this checkbox cleared.

That's why I can't get to the prompt "apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files" and thus I can't decompress all files in all subdirectories.

Can I do it somehow?
