Can I delete .HDMP files?

G

Gocards

After doing a Defrag, I found a folder that had files it could not defrag.
This folder (C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\ErrorRep\UserDumps), over a 3-day period
(Aug 4, Aug 7-8), this year loaded 622 files and 7.61 GB useage. With only a
meager 30GB HD on this old beast, I need the space.
File format example: vsmon.exe.20080808-015939-00.hdmp


--> Can I delete these .HDMP files and regain my lost memory space?


Thanks,
TJ
