[darrwing34]

I am wnting to clean up my system to make more room, is it safe to delete zip files after I have un-zipped them? also, is there anything else I can delete to make more room on my hard drive?

Hello there,

To what I know of, you can delete zip files once the files within the zip file have been unzipped, ive done it and ive had no problems with them files:michaelan

You can also delete the items in your temp folder and temporary internet files, as these can use up alot of space.

Hope this helps

What OS are you using?

You may also want to checkout a System Cleaner to get rid of Temp files and old Registry entries etc.

Before deleting the zip files, you might want to "back them up" onto a CD, just in case you may need them again. :)

you can also use a utility such ase ace utilities that will look into all of your folders and find orphan, bak, temp, and other unnecessary files. It has a 30 day free trial.
