rlc5195 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 CCleaner found a number of duplicate files on my C drive. Is it safe to delete all but on of the files when there are two or more duplicates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted April 15, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 15, 2018 No, bulk cleaning would be bad, many operating system and program-related files are amongst that list. Take your time, go through it, only remove files you know you don't need (documents, mp3s, videos, etc.) ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Moderators mta Posted April 15, 2018 Moderators Share Posted April 15, 2018 And it wouldnt hurt to have a personal backup of those folders prior to removing files, and even a system image would be recommended - just in case. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.
