[QUOTE="robduckyworth, post: 1203854, member: 184879"] cleaning out application caches usually frees up quite a bit of space on your drive, and usually doesn't cause any problems. its good to do it every now and again, it gets quite clogged up. thing is, caches make your apps load faster, and deleting them means they need to reload the cache. its great for stuff like web browsers: where you download stuff you dont need (i.e ads), but other apps it doesnt really do much. my safari cache usually gets up to about 1GB, so i usually clear it regularly inside the app. CMM can also strip unwanted languages out of apps, usually freeing up loads of space. [B]be careful[/B] when stripping universal binaries. this is known to mess up a lot of apps, including CS5. I wouldn't do it to anything you need. [/QUOTE]
