    How much of this NTUSER.DAT stuff can I delete?


    All of these files together only add up to 28MB, so far. Looking at the dates, I can guess that this will keep growing in size.
    So the question is, how much of this junk can I get rid of, without losing any of my settings.

    Iirc, this didn't happen on Windows 7, there was just the plain NTUSER.DAT and one or two NYUSER.DAT.LOG files.

    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,

    As well as the 3 ntuser files listed, there are 5 ntuser.dat(*****).regtrans-ms files and 2 ntuser,dat(*****).blf files.

    Do I copy those as well or unselect them like the 3 you listed?

    Shortcut key for "My Stuff" ?

    Using Windows 10, here's the steps I'm taking to search for files on the computer:

    • Click Start Menu (or tap the Windows key on the keyboard)
    • Start typing a search term
    • Click "My Stuff"
    • When it finds your file, click it to make the file open
    • If you want to open File Explorer and peruse similar files without opening files:
      • After clicking "My Stuff" (in Step 3) go to the bottom area under "Other places to look" and click "File Explorer"
      • File Explorer opens

      Question: I don't want to use the mouse to click "My Stuff" in step 3. Is there a shortcut key?
