Uninstalled Game leaves AppData can I delete?

Post by jack54 »

Hi Again,
using Windows 8.1.
I'm trying to clean up some files and disk space... I've uninstalled a few games but they are leaving behind folders and files in the various user/AppData area.

Examples Germany at War leaves folders in Appdata/local
Legions of Steel leaves Folders in Appdata Local low
Train Fever is leaving a big file in Appdata Roaming multiple folders (363 MB) seams to be a map cache.[&:]

Any ideas ... can I delete this stuff? It seems like junk to me, but I'm caution about deleting app data folders

Thanks for any help!

If the games are uninstalled, yes you can delete those folders.
