Deleting Files

[Guest]

When going into "Search" I pull up all my pictures. Alot are gif or jpg files, from playing games online. I found I had quite a few duplicates, but cannot delete them. If I attempt to delete more than 1 at a time, the Search freezes up, saying search not responding. If I do delete 1 file at a time, some of them come back with an error." Certainly there has to be a way of getting rid of some of these files. the pictures take up quite a bit of memory
thanks for your help.

Some images or files may be part of a certain program or the actual OS. If
these images are sometimes locked so the program or OS can continue using
them. Therefore, trying to delete them will result in an error.

When attempting to delete these images, be sure to know where they come from
and that deleting them will not damage your system.

If most of these are on you computer from playing online games, then try
deleting them by Opening Internet Explorer> Tools>Internet options>
Temporary internet files>delete files. You can also adjust the size of the
temp internet folder right there.

Hope this helps.
