Hi Bethaheart
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
OK...answers.
 
CONFIG File:
 
"In computing, configuration files, or config filesconfigure the parameters and initial settings for some computer programs. They are used for user applications, server processes and operating system settings." So DO NOT delete or amend unless you know what you are doing or are sure that the application it relates to has been uninstalled.
 
See HERE for more information.
 
INFO File:
 
"An INFO file stores information about images saved in a Zoom Browser photo album. It includes thumbnail image data, which enables quick browsing of images in the album created when one or more image files are opened by ZoomBrowser." so again DO NOT delete or amend unless you know what you are doing or are sure that the application it relates to has been uninstalled.
 
See HERE for more information.
 
EML File:
 
"An EML file is an e-mail message saved using Outlook Express. These files can also be created using some other e-mail clients. The files contain e-mail messages, and can also contain the attachments or files sent with the e-mail." So again whilst you can delete them itis best that you check usng an email client that supports this extension to make sure that you are not deleting anything important.

Hope that helps?
