Hi,

I have this computer for work with 142GB of storage. I started receiving alerts that my storage is filling up. So I started looking for what folders and files took up the most space. I was able to find plenty of culprits and started deleting some. I then came across C;/Users/MyName/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsLiveMail

I still want to use Windows Live Mail 2012, and want to make sure I still have access to the emails I've received and sent out over the years. I was wondering if I could delete any of the folders and/or files from here. Will I lose access to those emails? If I delete them, will they just re-download the next time I open up the program? That folder as a whole takes up half of the used data stored on the computer. 

What is the best approach to attacking this? Can I change a setting that prevents this from happening in the future? I want to make sure I do not reach a point of no return.

Thank you,

Juan
