Dear MS gurus: Thousands of pictures in Local-Microsoft-windows-notifications- Can I delete them? - 06/07/21 05:06 PM
I saved a picture on my computer and didn't know where it got saved, so I did a search for .jpg in Windows File Explorer and I found it.
I also found thousands of pictures I never took. Mostly news and advertising pictures in
Local -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Notifications -> (followed by a long alphanumerical name)
They are things as old as when Obama was president, when Trump and Clinton were debating, and other news photos plus what looks like stock images of people with products.
There are 2800 of them, mostly small sized, but I have no use for them. Can I safely delete them?
Thanks
PS. I don't know if it makes a difference, but it was originally a Win8 computer that I upgraded to Win10 as soon as it was available.
