Can you delete the compressed files during disk cleanup without causing any
problems.

When you Run Disk CleanUp it first Scans to see which
Files are suitable either for Deletion eg Temp files - or
for Compression (ie have not been used in 50 Days)and how
much Space could be recovered

Then you get the window with all the little boxes - if
you Check 'Compress Old Files' it will do just that - if
you don't Check it then it won't

Deletion doesn't come into it with regard to 'Compress
old Files' - they are either Compressed or they are not -
depending on your preference
