Hello,
I have a similar question to that put by Alain. I have just downloaded
OOo2.2 and want to clean up the folders from earlier installations. I
am running Windows XP and want to know if I can safely send the
following folders to the Recycle Bin.
In Program Files I have two folders called OpenOffice.org 2.0 and
OpenOffice.org 2.1 in addition to the latest OpenOffice.org 2.2. Can
I safely delete the first two?
Hello Margaret,
Provided that you have un-installed the previous versions it will be safe to
remove the folders in which they used to live. Thanks for reminding me to do the
same. :-)
In a folder that I use to locate files when I download them I also
have further three folders of installation files and also the
application files that were downloaded with each new version. Can I
safely delete all of these? I never know when I download updates to
any programs what I can get rid of from previous updates.
Same here. You only need to keep the current version's files to allow for
changing your installation options and for repair purposes. Even that is not
strictly necessary as you can recreate the installation files from the download
file.
I hope that you are well.
Best wishes.
