When Did You Last Install Windows?

How often do you like to install your Windows Operating System.

I like to reinstall twice a year (more so when I break it!). To me, it keeps the system running nice and weeds out any imperfections.

Many people have never reinstalled and will undoubtedly run like molasses. Others like to reinstall every few weeks.

What’s your preference?

Download this vbs script to show you when you last reinstalled Windows. (Works for XP, Vista & 7)

However – there might be situations or security issues involved where you don’t want anyone to be able to do just that. Then you can turn off the “Last Browsing Session” all together.

NOTE! I didn’t manage to get this to work on my system, but It might be due to the fact that I run a 64-bit system. So in case it may help you, here is how:
