I noticed recently that a lot of my memory was being used up...and i thought it was just because of music, videos etc...then i decided to have a look at what exactly was taking up all this memory, so i ran DiskAnalysis (which is part of Glary Utilties) and found out that 50 Gigs of my memory was taken up by .msp files.
I had no clues as to what these were.
So, I looked on trusty google and found out that they were updates for Microsoft Office and are created after you run an update for Office...I have never done this (Office works fine the way it is!)
My computer has often tried to update things after i click Shut Down but for some reason its never successful...which was fine with me....until now, since its taking up half my Hard Drive.
So, my main question is, is it alright to flat out just delete these 7000 odd .msp files? or will that kind of mess up my computer?

Thanks very much guys =]
EDIT: Smurf it, Im way too curious to find out if this is gonna work or not, so im gonna make a system restore and give ita try.
