[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1539927"] All My Files is not a download history or a separate storage area. It's a smart search of, well, all your files. That means it is a view of all your files regardless of where they are actually stored. Deleting things from All My Files deletes them from wherever they are. So don't be under the impression you have duplicates that are eating up space. You don't. I personally got rid of the All My Files folder from the sidebar since I saw no practical use for it.
