Then this is a dll file from your graphics adaptor, do not delete it at all costs or your graphics may not work properly.

hey there,

I would advice you to not delete a majority of the dll files. As many of them are required for the proper functioning of you system

I always recommend you that never delete the dll files. These files are responsible for the proper function of the micosoft applications.

especially the dll files from the system folder. A mere deletion would cause an entire re-install of ur OS and the loss of important data
