George;
Most people and probably you included, need to keep more than they think.
You came and asked here and then immediately discarded what information was
given.
Most if not all that answered you know exactly what has to be kept.
They also know what may be needed in the future but seems insignificant now.
Since none of us can see exactly what you have, it is prudent to save it all
since the space is minimal.
If we were there with you, it would be easy to tell you p[recisely what is
needed.
However instead you ask and then seem to get defensive when the answers do
not seem to line up with the decision you already made and carried out.
The point is you asked and then promptly ignored the overwhelming advice to
keep what you discarded.
Why did you ask?
But since it is your computer and software, you will be without if something
is missing.
There is already at least one thing of importance you seemed to throw away
since you have not mentioned it...or I missed that you had.
