My work computer HD is almost full, I have run the space lens feature within CleanMyMac to discover that I have a ton of files within the Illustrator DataRecover folder. Is it safe to delete all those files within the folder?

Hello @a.cacella,

 

Thanks for reaching out. Your files are automatically saved after a crash in the DataRecovery folder. If they aren't needed, you may clear the folder. You may learn more about this here: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/recover-files-after-crash.html.

 

Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need assistance. We'd be happy to help.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
