Hi,

My XP C:\Windows directory has 4 huge archives named E, O, S, and Y, without
any extensions.
Each of them is 1,6 Gb big.
I tried to move them to another drive, but the system doesn't allow.
What are they for?
Can I safely delete them? How to do it?

Thanks,

SantistaS
 
The 0, E, S and Y files are hidden.

I tried to apply the "attrib -h" DOS command to them, but I receive the
message



C:\WINDOWS>attrib -h 0.

Not resetting system file - C:\WINDOWS\0
