    Delete Programs Files or Program Files(x86)?

    You cannot delete them,if you delete it would screw up the computer.Generally Program files is for 64 bit installed programs and Program files(X86 ) is for 32 bit programs installed.

    Use disk cleanup utility with system files to free up space.
