Submitted by Jamie

Received from another group.

When you delete an email with an attachment in Incredimail a copy of that attachment is kept in an IM folder. I could not believe that I had over 50 thousand saved attachments in my IM attachment folder. That takes a lot of hard drive and slows down your computer. I am so careful to clean my computer and did not know this folder existed. Below are the instructions to clean out that folder.
  • Right click on start
  • Left click on explore
  • Left click on documents and settings
  • Left click on owner
  • Left click on local settings
  • Left click on application data
  • Left click on IM
  • Left click on identities
  • Left click on the long number
  • Left click on the message store
  • You will see the attachment folder....you need to delete all of these attachments...make sure you have checked all of you email first as it will also delete the attachments in the email you have not opened.
If you do not see any of the above folders they may be hidden...To find them
 
  • Click on tools in your explorer window
  • Click on folder options
  • Click on view
  • Make sure show all hidden folders is checked
  • Click apply
  • Click ok
  • You should now be able to see your folders
