  1. Once I download software & updates online is it ok to delete the exe files in my PC downloads


    I've currently let all my download exe files especially updates accumulate in my download section taking up space. Other than possibly the most recent exe files, should I delete all the rest from my PC? Thanks

    OK downloading the zip file from realtek at 15kb/s. I have 1MBit connection so this is about 8 times slower

    Update: And now at 10x slower. Shit this is so annoying
