Hey there.
So I am selling my mac and I thought I would delete all the files off (other than applications) to make it clean. I moved like 10,000 files into my trash (everything under the 'all my files' tab). I was hesitant to delete as I thought deleted all those files might effect performance or be an important file just for the mac to operate.
I then found that there's a much easier way to do what I was trying to do (creating a new admin account and deleting your old one). but now all these files are in my trash, alot of them dont allow my to 'put back' so my question is this. If I
A) Create the new admin account and delete my old one with all the trashed files will my computer still run fine.
or
B) If I just empty my trash am I going to run into any issues?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
LJ
