Delete or not; "System error Memory Dump Files" & "Debug dump files" in the Windows 7 disk cleanup program
I am new to Windows 7, 64-bit OS and making the disk cleanup program. There are 2 unfamiliar topics with boxes to check what are the "Debug Dump Files" and "system error memory dump files. I'm naïve as to what are these files and whether they contain all files that possibly should not be deleted. Can anyone say and find out about what are the debug files and system error Memory Dump and if; Should I or not the check their boxes to get rid of all these files in particular type box? Or could there be some Debug files & system error Memory Dump that might be of some importance and should not be deleted?
Thank you for your time and any comments on this would be greatly appreciated. Have a nice weekend.

One good thing about Windows Disk Clean up is, only offer files delete them it is safe and will not harm your PC. Files of system errors and debugging dump files are created when there is an error in your system, and it creates a dump file that could be used for analyses. That say if you encounter blue screen error, dump file will create and if you find analysis you of cause of this problem. Whether or not you want to remove, you, some people will delete it only while others will keep the Explorer themselves later. But more importantly, it is wise to report them to Microsoft before deleting.
To do this, open Control Panel and click under Maintenance contract and Action Center, click Check for solutions then it will collect all the information related to the errors and dump files and he could ask permission to send them and if you great permission, they will be sent. Once it was successful you can delete them.
Sending the Microsoft dump files is a good idea, because there are teams who revisit and they try to find the cause and resolve it through Windows Update, or inform you about the possible solution in the center of the Action.

Disk Cleanup is not showing me the ability to clean the system error memory dump files
Hello. When I run the disk cleanup utility in Vista, it does not show the option of cleaning the system error memory dump files. It is a very serious problem. I had to delete files that I really wanted to keep, because I thought they were taking too much space. He did not make a particle of difference. I have only two GB on my C drive now. How to fix this problem?

You must use the scroll bar on the right disk cleanup in the window that appears after checking for space to scroll to check the boxes before these items.
Deleting the less important system restore points allows you to earn useful free disk space.
A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.
cCleaner also comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

System error memory dump files
Is it safe to delete system error memory dump files after you run a cleaning disc? Also what are system error memory dump files?
Hi Cookie5354,
Basically, error, say a blue screen of death (BSOD) Windows gathers all available information stored in memory at the time of the incident and that she "pours" in a file. The file can then be used by a support technician to determine what could perhaps have the error in the first place. Sometimes, when an error occurs on Windows will ask you if it can information additional NMCS to Microsoft. If you press the Yes button on the request message that appears, then Windows will download the dump to Microsoft Server files.
Dump files are useful "but" they have the bad habit of taking a lot of space, so it is beneficial remove files to recover the space they occupy. Personally, I use a freeware thrid party application called CCleaner (www.piriform.com) If you use this and look at the bottom of the left side of the window of CCleaner, you will see a list of options what it removes. "Remove Windows error reports" is not checked by default, but I it check every few weeks or so, so that it clears the resports old error that are no longer needed.
So, in answer to your question, yes they can be deleted.
This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

I have very little space on the hard drive (about 7gbts) and can win 9.3gbts by removing the previous installation files. However, I don't know if I can do it without the laptop unusable. Any solid info on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
Files left by previous installations are just a backup in case something does not work
work properly after reinstalling (resettlement "repair/upgrade") and they can be deleted once
you are sure that the system works properly.
You can also save the file to an external source like DVD (files can be moved
in the groups to separate from the DVD) or disk external DRIVE as an extra precaution.

It is not possible to view DNG files in the windows Explorer.
I use a Canon EOS 500 d for all my photos that are managed in adobe Bridge; processed in Adobe CS4. When you look at the RAW images that are stored as DNG in my images (before conversion to JPEG) they aren't recognized and unopenable in windows. Only readable in Bridge. Microsoft produced a codec to allow them to be visible in the browser?
Thank you for your help.
Julian
Adobe has free download:
http://labs.Adobe.com/wiki/index.php/DNG_Codec
The current lists only Vista, but I think it works for Windows 7 32 bit.
Adobe has not released a 64-bit DNG codec, but if you search the web, there are some other 3rd party. The price, we're too small. For example, it's $10 http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/. Do not recommend one way or other hand, it just helps as an example

Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear the cache of the browser, and then try again. If the problem persists, please contact Web site author. But all the content loads correctly, and it just seems to be an annoying error message. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this or that which is the cause. Site is: http://davidkimlaw.com
You solve the symptom and not the problem. If something is to change the files after they are exported from Muse, the consequences could be vast and varied download to download.
Don't the accordion on the 'AREAS' jobs page widget if this file exported (and unaltered) opens in the browser on your local computer? It doesn't seem to work on the online site, which could be linked to the questions of the error was about or may be an offshoot of some hand changes were made after export.
If you empty the re-export of Muse in a folder and then download the same files, I'll take a second look at what's going on. If you wish, you can you could do that in a subfolder so as not to disturb the live site. (When I detected that the index.css file is out of sync I was on my phone and could not go any further.)

Iolo System Mechanic deep cleaning has totally deleted my Windows Installer Service folder (and perhaps my RPC end point mapper file) on my Vista Home Premium PC. I looked into MSCONFIG and they are gone! It has been too long to do a system restore or other functions of the round trip. Q: if I buy the Windows 7 upgrade, it also installs? It will make Windows Installer service (and RPC end point Mapper) reappear? If not, how to get support from Microsoft? I already tried all 4 methods in article ID 2642495 re: find the Windows Installer service. I have now 10 MS Important that cannot install updates because missing the file of the Windows Installer service. Personal support of Iolo System Mechanic were NO help. Thanks in advance.
