i did an archive and install, and just wondering if I can delete the whole folder named "previous system 1"
am i risking anything here?

Unless there are plugins and extensions you specifically want to keep, no.

I'd keep it around until you're sure you don't need anything from it, then get rid of it.
 
hehe - I love questions like this, where the short answer is "no" and the long answer is "yes."

jsw basically answered it, though. In that folder is your old home folder...just make sure you have everything out there you want, and you're free to get rid of it.
 
okay..mm. I'm just worried that there might be documents or photos stuck in that folder, cuz i dont' really have a good idea how archive and install works. Don't mind about plugins which i can easily get from internet.
so, am i good to go?
