Cleanup on win 7 machine - 2.2GB of 'per user guesed windows error reports'
Posted on 2014-12-07
Just ran disk cleanup on a win 7 machine that's running OK.
It came back with a total of 2.62 GB of files it could delete.
2.2 of that was 'per user queued windows error reports'.
I ran ccleaner and it came back wanting to delete 3.2 GB of files.
Under windows error reporting, there's a 1.1GB file in
C:\Users\Larry\AppData\Loc
with an October 15 date. in that path is mbam.exe - malwarebytes.
a) is that an acceptable amount of error reports over a few months since they got the machine?
b) is there a way to automate this cleanup?

If the user has been having some errors , than that may be normal.
I suggest Disk Cleanup, not CCleaner. Disk Cleanup will remove the correct files.

The new free version of ccleaner will prompt you for available files to delete
