    Can I move .etl files to a different disk?


    I have 2 ssd disks on my machine, one is small, the other is large. The small disk is where the OS and program files are. It also houses the .etl file, which is taking a lot of space. I've moved some of my personal files to the large disk, but can I move the .etl file into the other disk as well? I'm not very tech savvy, but I need to free up space on my main disk, as I can't download any more programs onto it. My OS is Windows 10.

    :)

    etl file

    I’ve checked the system and found System.1.etl file in disk C. I don’t know if this file is important. What can happen if I delete it?

    Can this ETL file be deleted?

    I am running Windows 10 Home X64. I have an ETL file, in the root of C:\, that is over 23gb in size. It is the "gemmauf.etl" file. How important is this file? Is it safe to delete this file especially, since it is taking up a lot of disk space?
