I'm trying to clean out my HD and am searching for dud files that arent' needed by anything.  I know to look for
  • *.chk
  • *.tmp
  • *.log


But what other file types can you thrash?  And no funny business about deleting *.exe or formating c:.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

Not really funny business about formating c:\...but I just did a few weeks ago, and it did me a lot of good. Basically...it was like a test. If I needed/used something, then I backed it up. If I forgot about it, I didn't need it too urgently, lol.

Of course my 40 gig HD with all my backups (including school work) on it has gone and screwed up...

I'm living on a 10 gig drive.  I know I need a bigger one.  But I've only got Windows and Kotor installed on it and all my other crap is only about a gig...
