zip files in AdobePatchFiles folder

[rworthi]

I have 2 GB of zip files in Applications/Adobe/AdobePatchFiles generated by Creative Cloud (Mac OSX 10.9.2). Can I delete them?

you need those files for future patches.

in general, before deleting files you're not certain you can delete, rename them. (i like to prefix the file name with a dollar sign, $.  that moves the file to the top of the directory listings and makes it easy to rename back to the original if there's a problem.)
