    I to delete logs I don't need. But I know how I got the logs and what they are.
    I also about once a week clean out Event Viewer.
    I delete logs stored in all my security programs after scans every now and again.

    I still don't know how one can get 200 plus GB of logs. Then again I always kept things clean so I wouldn't know.

    I have a simple approach with those huge files a la cbs.log - since they are too big to digest and most of it I do not understand anyhow, I might as well delete the file. No need to keep dead meat around.

    tHANK you bro,deleted also tried to get system mechanice..but now worried after your words about these programs

    System mechanic is definitely one to avoid, I like others don't believe in one stop fix all programs they are generally junk and can have severe side effects

    If you wish to look at event viewer simply type event into your start menu and it will appear, there are several lists/sections/sub menus that you can scroll through to look at different kinds of logs/errors
    Its worth mentioning though that it is normal to see many many entries listed as errors and warnings on a perfectly healthy machine so don't be too concerned
