When talking about Windoze, we try to avoid the word "delete".
Yes you can UNINSTALL anything you don't use thru Add/Remove Programs.
If you have the install disks, you can reinstall them if you like.
This will indeed gain you some more disk space.
As I said in the post to which I linked,
if you don't MOVE infrequently-used data files onto optical disks,
this housecleaning will only be a stop-gap measure anyway
and as Fed-up said, you should then start shopping for a bigger hard drive.
You can also add an ADDITIONAL hard drive.
Many folks find the backup process (to optical disks) easier
when they keep their data on a separate drive.
