    I'm trying to get more space in my Sandisk USB drive. There's a file cruzerSync that takes more than 1MB. Is it important? Can I delete it? What else can I delete? All I need is simply to store my files, anything extra I don't want but am not sure if deletion of anything can result in problems. Thanks in advance.

    If you're just using it for file storage you can delete everything, up to and including completely formatting it like any other drive.

    If it has U3 software on it (mounts as 2 drive letters) Sandisk has a utility to remove that as well to totally maximize your space. Reversible too, if you change your mind later.

    Pretty sure this is in the wrong forum, tho ;)
