Most people have no idea what miscellaneous files are, let alone how to clear them. This is actually a pretty important thing to know how to do, because miscellaneous files can take up a lot of space on your computer and slow it down. So, here's a quick guide on how to clear your miscellaneous files.
First, open up your file explorer. On Windows 10, this is done by clicking the start menu and then typing file explorer into the search bar. Once you've opened up file explorer, head over to your C: drive. This is where all of your main files are stored.
Once you're in your C: drive, click on the Users folder. Inside of the Users folder, there will be a folder for each user account on the computer. Click on your user account folder (it will have your username).
Inside of your user account folder, there will be a bunch of different folders - one of them will be called AppData. Double click on AppData to open it up.
Now, inside of AppData, there are two more folders that we need to worry about - Local and Roaming. Local is where all of the data for programs installed only on your current user account are stored, while Roaming is where data for programs that can be used by any user account on the computer are stored. We want to focus on Local first.
So double click on Local and then double click on Microsoft. Inside of Microsoft, there will be yet another bunch of folders - again, we want to focus on the one called Windows. Go ahead and double click on Windows to open it up as well.. Now we're getting close! ಠ_ಠ The next folder inside of Windows is called Temp. Double click Temp and give yourself a pat on the back - you made it! ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° All that's left now is deleting everything inside of Temp (but don't delete Temp itself!). To do this quickly and easily, press CTRL+A to select everything inside of Temp and then press SHIFT+DELETE (this bypasses the recycle bin). And that's it! You've successfully cleared out your miscellaneous files
