 To keep your computer hard drive clear, it's important to empty your trash every couple of months, in my opinion, or sometimes more frequently. I have a to-do item on my to-do list that comes up every three months or so to just go into my trash, and what I do is I open the trash and then I scroll down to files that were deleted three months ago. So right now, it's mid-August, so I'm going to go all the way to mid-May, okay, so sorry for the fast scrolling, okay, anyway, just somewhere around here, and then I click once and then I scroll down again to the very bottom, and then I do shift, click to select everything from mid-May all the way to down here, and then I right click and I do delete immediately. I'll put them all back on your desktop, that happened to me before, I'm going to delete immediately, and then are you sure you want to delete, yes, delete, and there you go. So this way, the reason why I do it from three months all the way to the beginning is because just in case there are some files within the last three months that I later remember that I want to keep, that's sort of my safety measure. So anyway, just a really quick to-do item every three months or so, and it kind of keeps the computer hard drive less cluttered.
