I need Disk cleanup help

Disk Cleanup is a tool that helps you to delete files and folders faster. Just open the Disk Cleanup: All programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Disk Cleanup. Then select the Hard Drive from which you want do delete files. Then you are asked to select what files you want to erase permanently. The last step is to confirm the process. If you want to delete programs, select the "Clean up system files"; choose the Drive, then "More options" -> Clean up button. You can select from a list that contains all your installed programs.
