Deleting Unnecessary Files

By deleting unnecessary files from the hard drive, you free
drive space and help improve your Notebook’s performance.
Use the Windows Disk Cleanup utility to delete temporary
Windows files, temporary Internet files, empty the Recycle
Bin, and delete unneeded electronic mail files.

To use Windows Disk Cleanup, complete the following steps:

1. Click Start, then select Programs, Accessories,

System Tools, then Disk Cleanup. The Select Drive
dialog box is displayed.

2. Select the drive you want to clean up and click OK. The

Disk Cleanup dialog box is displayed.

3. Click the check box beside each file type you want to

delete. For more information about each file type you can
delete, read the descriptions in the Disk Cleanup dialog
box.

4. Click OK, then click Yes to confirm. The selected

files are deleted.

Caution: If you do not intend to delete files that are selected for

deletion, cancel the request by clicking No when prompted.
