As a rule, it is always good to save a copy of installation files of any downloaded program (not just Legacy) to avoid the need to re-download should a re-install be needed, but you generally only need to save the most current version, or an earlier version that you might want to revert to or install on a different computer.
That said, I think you will be disappointed with the space you will gain from those few files, and if you are that desperate for space there are probably a lot bigger fish in the pond. Most people fail to change the Internet Explored default setting for temporary files to something more reasonable like 50-100 MB. Another is to look critically at your installed software and uninstall programs you really don't use anymore. Downloaded music from iTunes (or elsewhere) and video files are big eaters of HD space. And there can be a lot of accumulated temp files and other junk in other locations. Two small programs that can help dispose of the detritis are CleanUp! at http://www.stevengould.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=69 and CCleaner at http://www.ccleaner.com/ If you have less than 10% free space after doing the above, then IMO you should seriously consider a new HD, off-loading more files to a portable HD, or a new computer.

I still have program named Legacy 55 setup and Legacy 66 setup. Can I delete or uninstall these? And what about all the updates that I down load. Once they are installed, can I move them to another drive or delete them? I need more room on my computer, Thanks, Diane Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
