Hi Jonathan,

We would like to inform you that the files that you mention on the screenshot are logs created by Windows. Event trace log (ETLfiles that are created by using Windows Performance Recorder (WPR) in particular.
Based on my research, deleting those files will not affect anything on your system.
Thank you.

Hi so i noticed my drive was running low on space for no reason what so ever so i went looking around on my system and noticed in C:\ProgramData\AVG\Antivirus\log there are 5 files labeled as wpr_record and they come up to a total of 45gb so i am wondering if i am able to just straight up delete them because originally i was thinking of formatting to start from scratch again to clean up my storage but if i am able to at least delete these files i wouldn't need to format it but i want to find out first if it is actually safe to do so first
