Can I delete Microsoft Office updates to free up disk space?

[JMH]

Deleting updates and folders might be okay if you do a backup beforehand, just to be sure. There are better ways to free up disk space that will be less problematic.

Ask Leo certainly likes CCleaner. He seems to recommend it in almost every article.

Always a good idea to have
1.a current System Restore point created.
2.a recent "Back up" of your computer- preferably to an external HD.
before using any Registry Cleaner.

System Restore before any change or new program install!

Personally, although CCleaner is not known to cause the type of system havoc other registry cleaners do, I recommend using it for temp file, cookie cleanup and leave the registry alone.

Agreed!

Injudicious use of "Registry cleaners" CAN & DOES cause problems.
