Windows File Protection after trying to compress old files

[Spydergt]

Hello,
We had a server running out of space so I tried to run the disk cleanup utility. One of the options was to compress old files. Now windows file protection has popped up and is asking for the windows server 2003 cd. Should I ignore and cancel because the files are not really different just compressed and probably lost their signature? My concern with using the CD is that there may have been updated files along the way from hot fixes and I don't want to introduce the incorrect version and have a bigger problem.

WFPS only prompts if it detects a lost or corrupted Windows file.

Proceed with the CD you have. If you do not feel 100% confortable then proceed with next step.

Need to download the latest version of W2K3 with the latest SP applied and create a new CD. This is required because your HD is already out of space and you cannot put the latest I386 local and have WFPS point to it as a reference.

Hope this helps.
