Guest Chic0 Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I have just been clearing out some junk from my phone and came across these files in the ISPMWindows folder. As you can see they take up quite a bit of space. From the filenames i gather they are something to do with text messages. Can i delete these files?files.jpg
Guest Ethanol Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 As far as I know the only files that are 'safe' to delete are the contents of your ISPM>MAPI file. This should free up a bit of space. These files are just messege body texts. Have a look here Webpage Title
Guest Ethanol Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 sorry I meant 'IPSM' and webpage title : coolsmartphone/speed. Its late OK
Guest midnight Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Erm, i think you should be ok for all those files except the 'mxip_initdb.vol' cos none of those files exist in my IPSMWindows folder. just make sure you have copies of any mails you wanna keep. and dont blame me if anything goes wrong :lol:
Guest aiwapro Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I have those in my 'Windows' folder, but not in my 'IPSMWindows' folder. They take up alot of space. I don't know if I should delete them or not.
Guest midnight Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 if they are in your windows folder then dont delete em, those are the actual protocols for sending/receiving, chances are you cant delete them out of the windows folder anyway as most files are write protect there :wink:
Guest Bazz Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 They are also not that big. Neill what-his-face from MS said that their sizes are incorrectly reported. Remember your IPSM folder can only be 8Mb in total so that kinda confirms that. I'd just leave 'em.
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Yep, some people have reported file sizes of over a gigabyte sitting in the IPSM heheh
Guest yatpeak Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Yeah, but they look important, don't delete them I reckon. Wyatt
Guest midnight Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 like i said, i dont have em in my IPSM folder :lol: so cant see it doing any damage, but then, if it aint broke dont fix it
Guest Chic0 Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 Cheers for the advice guys. I dont think i'll be erasing those files now. Best to be safe than sorry. Made a slight mistake though, the files weren't in the ISPMWindows folder but the other windows folder. Had a long day yesterday. Anyway cheers! :lol:
Guest midnight Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 in that case you cant delete them anyway, they are write protect out of interest, i have looked into these files with a hex editor, and the two i tried where actually blank and there is no way they are the reported size either
Guest Chic0 Posted March 28, 2003 Report Posted March 28, 2003 I like the avatar Chic0! Cheers.Yep, pretty cool picture. :lol:
