can i delete downloaded stuff from command center?

hi!
 
just got Sonar 4 life
 
i just downloaded and installed all my new stuff from the command center,
 
i now noticed that i have 13gig of stuff stored in the download path (C:\ProgramData\Cakewalk\Command Center\Downloads)
 
can i safely delete all this stuff or do i need to keep this??? (to save room on my SSD...)
(it mostly seem like installer .exe... was about to delete but thought i would ask 1st to make sure i dont break anything...)
 
thanks a lot!

what you have in there are all the updates you've downloaded, no surprise there.
if you have rolled back and like a particular version, keep those.
if not you can pretty much delete all of it because they are only the installers.
upon restart sonar will recalculate the cache.
 
if I were you though, keep a one, or two of the latest updates incase you need to do a re install if something goes array (you'll have something to fall back on).
 
you can also do a search, this has been asked many times (even as recent as last week)

Do I really need to keep them?  Can't I just download them after I do a fresh install?  Will I get access to my last updates that I got with my year free updates? Or do I just keep the last "Platinum SETUP" file?

sure, delete everything and re install sonar CCC, it will re download everything your up to date for in your account.
