<title>Purge trash & temporary files</title>
<p>Clearing out your trash and temporary files removes
unwanted and unneeded files from your computer, and also frees up more
space on your hard drive. You can manually empty your trash and clear
your temporary files, but you can also set your computer to automatically
do this for you.</p>
<p>Temporary files are files created automatically by applications in the
background. They can increase performance by providing a copy of data that
was downloaded or computed.</p>
