(of course I didn’t do a screen shot) got a message from Webroot that Internet Explorer is filling up my hard drive with temporary files (or something to that effect) I looked at my hard drive folders but don’t see them.  Dell laptop only one year old.  I don’t even use IE but I don’t want to delete it either.  Hard drive definitely should not be filling up…  thanks so much for any advice!

Thanks - tried all of the above, didn’t seem to make much difference.  Next time I see the message I’ll do a screen shot.  thanks again!   :)

Hello @smclement 

 

Is it from System Analyzer by any chance? If so just ignore and see here:
