Can someone help me with my hard drive?

Hey,

Here is a picture of what is on my hard drive now. Can you tell me what I can delete? I want to get rid of some of these files and folders.

Thanks!

CAREFUL. Don't zap any of these folders. Juno is your ISP, Program Files stores your programs, etc. Zap any of these and you can be hosed.

Are you short on disk space. Go to your install/remove programs and ONLY uninstall programs you are 100% sure you installed and you don't need.

You can run a disk cleanup as well.

My only warning is - delete in haste, repent in leisure.

Thank you,
But what about my games? Nothing in it. And what is FTW? Also, can I delete any of the files at the bottom?

Delete the game folder. Leave the files - as I'm not sure what they are.
And do yourself a favor and run malwarebytes. Just for peace of mind.
