    Hi all,

    I've used CCleaner and EasyClean to, well, find stuff that wasn't needed, obsolete, etc.

    There's a world of difference between the two: It seems EasyCleaner found a lot of stuff CC didn't.

    And, it found a lot of Duplicate Files. Most aren't an issue, but, there were tons of .query files in PCHealth\HelpCenter\offline cache\Professional "” "0000000a.query" and all are from 2005. There's 487 of them to be exact.

    Do I need them? I did a Google search and wasn't able to find anything helpful.

    I would leave them be - they are normal and, according to one thread 'improve the performance of Windows'.

    I have 536, all of the same date, which I cannot relate to anything specific, but they amount to a mere 1.1 Mb which is totally insignificant.
