When you do a disk cleanup, Local Drive (C:) Properties; I notice that
some of the objects are automatically checked while others aren't.
The 'Setup Log Files' box has never been automatically checked. I
have wondered about the "Setup Log Files" and what they are. They take
up about 4 meg. Can I safely "cleanup" all objects in disk cleanup
window box including the 'Setup Log Files? Thanks for the help.

Yes, you can check all the Boxes there to clean up.

performed on the machine for the OS, Programs been installed for ex....office.

For specific operation(s) in disk cleanup,go to run,type:CLEANMGR /SAGESET
Check the boxes you want clean up to perform,once thru,return to run,type:
CLEANMGR /SAGERUN This also works in cmd.
