I don't understand what you mean about not deleting the others? If you want to delete a Family File, go to File > Delete Family File and the FDB file along with all associated files will be deleted and sent to the Recycle Bin.
All the files in the c:\Legacy\Data folder work with the Family File and should only be deleted if Support recommends it to fix a problem. As Mike suggested, the list of files is under the Help topic "File Extensions" - scroll down beyond the list of .USR files.
