    Save some space, get rid of c:\msocache

    If you've ever noticed your c:\msocache can be quite big.  From my investigation this seems to be filled with Office install files.

    I don't need them, and I doubt you do either.  Here are the steps to get rid of them:

    1. Click Start
    2. Type: Disk Cleanup
    3. Chose "Files from all users on this computer"
    4. From the Drives list in the Select Drive dialog box, select the hard drive that contains the Msocache folder
    5. Select the Office Setup Files checkbox in the Files to Delete list
    6. Click OK
    7. When you are asked Are you sure you want to delete these files? select Yes
