    House cleaning D drive?

    Just doing some house keeping and wonder if formatting "D" drive is ok?
    Yes I have made recovery discs and have a clean laptop.
    Looks like my laptop has 2 separate drives.
    see snips of my computer and "D" drive.
    Would you format "D" drive?

    Hello Dennis,

    If the bottom screenshot is the contents of the D: drive, then it appears to be nothing more than a back up drive where you saved a created system image to. You can format if you like without a problem to have a empty D: drive again.
