Default Disk Cleanup


I have always deleted everything that is checked. When I just ran it
the only things that weren't checked are Recycle Bin and the Per User
Archived Windows error report. Go ahead and delete, if you've never
deleted anything using this tool, you may find some increase in
space/speed. I'd also recommend running the defrag app after you delete
from system clean up.
