Re: question about what files i can safely use disk cleanup on ...

You might want to consider NOT cleaning the Hibernation File Cleaner. If you
do clean it up then Hibernation will not longer work. (It can be turned back
on later however so is not a catastrophe).

If you are having problems and are involved with Microsoft Maintenance then
don't clean up the dump/error reports until your problem is resolved as
information here may assist MS if determining the problem.. Otherwise celan
them up.
