in case of windows 7 disk cleanup is really safe.you can delete temporary internet files,thumbnails,temporary other files etc.it is not harmful for your pc.

if you do not believe in DISK CLEAN UP, then i suggest you to use any PC TUNE UP software which will definitely help you.

but i strongly recommend you to use disk cleanup because i used it a lot of times and it really great...

1stly do not try to clean up your disk manually.Your computer can compute which file is important and which is useless to run the system.

Disk clean up is always safe.

Sometimes deleting ''Temp'' named folders can cause you loss of important bookmarks,links,saved game,checkpoints,recovery files for unsaved text,xcel,power point or word documents,etc..Or make ur system slow fr sm moments.

So you must use ''Windows own disk clean up system''.

For that

-U go to ''Help'' if you are using any windows OS or vista.



-Then type Disk Clean Up in the help menu search bar.



-Then some advice or options will come with the underlined word ''Disk Clean up'' in Vista or Win7 or may be a ''go to disk clean up'' option in older Win OS.

-U click on that link .

That will take u to a new window.

U select your system drive ( in most cases its C drive )



-Then the system will find out tempoarary,unnecessary files and you will hav to select what types u dont want.You must select on ur need.You may select all.



-Then the system self cleans the disk by removing those unnecessary files.

Thats all.

Its most safest to use Windows' own Disk Clean Up system when you are working on your precious system.Using of external nonlincensed software may harm ur system..Its your choice.

do no longer confuse memory with area. Your no longer trouble-free tension has area. bypass out and purchase (under $a hundred.00) an exterior USB no longer trouble-free tension. only placed photos, track and records on it using fact maximum exterior no longer trouble-free drives can't be used for courses to run. That way you will loose us area on your no longer trouble-free tension. playstation : A C: partition and a D: partition from production unit frequently potential your equipment restoration is on the D: and you're able to no longer mess with it.
