It is safe to delete the crwl and gthr
While trying to remove a virus on my system, I discovered a number of CRWL and GTHR files that appear as if they can be linked to the application of virus I get rid. (I think that these files were "crawling" through my system to "collect" information and/or files of my computer - but Jose just a hunch).
1 am I correct my "guesstimation" what were these files/viruses?
2. is it safe to delete these files
I found these files in
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\GatherLogs\System Index
Thank you very much for any help or someone can give answers.

Is it safe to delete the original score after successful cloning?
I have a Mac mini mid2010. I swapped his optical drive to an SSD. Then I cloned the operating system partition and everything works perfectly. My question is whether it is safe to delete the original "Macintosh HD" that I cloned, or if there is a way to keep its files being accessible if I don't get them mixed up.
Thank you
Delete the old folder on the internal drive home page only. I should leave everything alone in case you need to boot from this drive. However, in general, it is safe to reformat the hard drive. But it depends on what you plan to do with it.

My steps for installing Windows 8.1:
Create a. ISO file from DVD installation disc and save it. ISO on a USB Flash drive.
run bootcamp and run the. Location of the ISO on the usb flash drive.
The SSD partition
and then it reboot and the windows installer is on and I finish installing Windows 8.1
then the program to install bootcamp drivers intervenes and installs the drivers
then it restarts and I upgraded towing 10 Windows later and update the bootcamp drivers
Then I start to Mac OS X, but the OSXRESERVED partition is still there.
And when I restart by pressing the option key, I see 1 Macintosh HD but 2 displayed Windows disks
Is it safe to delete the partition OSXRESERVED? I read online that deleting it will cause 10 Windows do not to start over.
Or should I leave it alone?

I was do a cleaning on my system and find files and temporary folders in all directions. I was wondering if it is safe to delete the files from the System 32 > DriverStore > Temp folder.
Thank you

Nothing in the Windows or Program Files and files their subfolders should be left alone. You won't earn a significant amount of disk space, and you may cause to yourself untold trouble sleeping herein. Use instead the provided Windows Disk Cleanup. You can get to it by clicking on start-> computer, then click on the C: drive and click Properties. On the general tab, you will see disk cleanup. Use it and you will be safe (and not sorry). Everything you personally placed on the computer can always be removed of course as long as you do not try to remove installed manually the software (use the programs and features in the control panel for this).
I hope this helps. Good luck.

I cancelled iTunes on a Macbook Air, issued by the school. All my music is stored/saved on my iMac at home. If I delete the playlists and songs of the Macbook it will affect my master library?
Unless you're 'home sharing', which he does not seem like you are, two libraries (macbook and iMac) are distinct, so a change does not affect the other. Best way to test would be to remove a few songs you can download easily and see if it changes. But I don't think it will be a problem.

I just UN - and reinstalled the app of the in-game store, so there should be no modules are no longer. Previously, I had installed "CleanQuit" app.

It is safe to delete the files under C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download
My C drive is full and I went through the cleaning process several times. I noticed that all the files day added on drive C under C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download. Can I safely delete these files? They add up to 100 to 200 MB per day.
Hello
The "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" folder is where the updates are stored.
There are views mixed in all areas on the deletion of this file, but my opinion is that if you stop the automatic updates, delete the folder and then restart automatic updates who works and who has worked several times before for me.
