Thanks! I do this nightly! I even use my "Disk Cleanup" under Systems Tools. We collect many files in a day while browsing the Internet. Some slow our computers to a snail's pace. Good of you to post this helpful hint.

Much Love ♥

  Thank you. Many people I know on AP and outside of it have difficulties in doing this and I have advised many on it. So I thought it best to do a write up on it.
