When I installed Office 2003, a total of 288,981K of "Office Setup
Files" appeared on my hard drive the first time I did a scan disk
cleanup.  Is this where the Office Setup Files belong?  Is their
presence there slowing the performance of my computer?  If these files
belong somewhere else, where would that be?

Many thanks from a first time user.

Has your computer slowed?  Often the tools that show where these things are
are confusing and worrying to the novice user.

They are in the right place if you want to detect and repair the office apps
or be sure of a quality un-install if this should be necessary.

Do they have to be there?  No, but they will do little harm either providing
you still have plenty of disk space and sometimes trying to find the CD when
you're in a hurry, can be a pain.

Up to you

Thanks for the prompt reply Nick.  Just because they showed up on a dis
scan in the same place as temporary internet files made me think the
were slowing me down.  Can't really say that their presence slows m
performance.

Once again, thanks.  And you guys have a great forum!!
