I was recently looking up ways to free up space.So I searched size:gigantic in Local Disk and all i saw was "

pakchunk10_(1, 2, 3 ect.)-WindowsClient.pak"

.They take up somewhere between 4,00 - 4,10 GB of space.Are they safe to delete, and if so should i back them up to one drive before deleting?

    Hi OkB0oM3r

    Are you a gamer, PAK files are generally part of a game you have installed on your PC, if you delete any of those, the associated game will not work . . .

    What is the exact location of those PAK files you have found on your PC?
