Hi, I was doing a Disk Cleanup before Defraging my pc and I noticed something I had never seen before. In the box that you choose what to clean up, I noticed "Set Up Log Files" in the list. When I highlighted it, I couldn't view the files contain in there but it said "Created by Window". Can I safely delete them without damaging my pc or creating other problems with my system? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I usually delete everything with cleanup. Log files are usually used to see where errors come from if you have any. Setup log files sounds like files made when you installed XP on the computer, tho i may be wrong. They may be files made when installing software also.
