Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a large number of Temp Files after setting up my wifi printer.

I wondered if anyone might recognise this situation and can advise whether or not I can simply delete Windows 10 Temp Files without impact on my printer settings?

 

8 files start with 7z and others hp diagnostics. I did propose to copy and paste the list here but cannot get a paste result from using the keyboard as advised.

 

I hope someone can help as this temp list impacts on my 32GB hard drive, I now have 10GB remaining.

Thanks

Hi @Lion66

 

Temp files doesn't affect your printer configuration, those temp files can be deleted and you can release more space on your HDD.

 

I hope solve your doubts, if this solve your doubts let me know it

I deleted the Hp related temp files, prefixed 7z from Windows 10 %temp% and I now have 11.2GB free on the hard drive.

The HP printer works ok as promised.

 

Thanks
