My data folder is getting a little big. I would like to delete some of the files to save hard drive space. It appears to contain files for stock symbols I no longer care about. Most of these have the extensions .dly and .scid.

There are also some .cbak files that seem unnecessary.

Is it safe to delete all of the files with these extensions? Are there any undesirable consequences? Are there any other files I can safely delete to save space?

Thanks.

You can safely delete these files without any consequence. The files that will save the most amount of space are the scid files. The other files take up very little space.
