200GB worth of .cab files in temp folder - Can I delete them
I have a 10 year old build I did for a client. I have seen this before. I ran WinDirStat and the machine has over 200GB of mostly .CAB files in the temp folder (Windows/temp) Can I safely delete them. I'm a little out of practice, but they are just profile folders (i think) should be safe to delete......right?
Last time I saw this I forgot to run WinDirStat to find out what was taking up 300GB of space. I'll bet it was the same. I re-installed for the client last time, but I think CCleaner or just my "delete" button can get rid of these. I just deleted 10 GB I can restore from recycle bin. If it's still working tomorrow I'll just keep doing that!
Done "Disk Cleanup" but not Bare foot Kid's "Disk cleanup - extended" Tutorial. Nobody knows the admin password here....I'm really out of practice. It's been too long since I was building systems.
