Webroot just completed a mthly scan and has listed some issues. I do not know how to deal with the issues.
  1. Some devices are not functioning and may need to be reinstalled.
  2. A large number of temporary files have been found (2055 MB - Windows/IE only)
  3. Private information may be stored in cookies on the s.ystem

Hello @stoppj1 and Welcome to the Webroot Community!

You must of ran System Analyzer? System analyzer it just a basic tool and there is nothing you can do with what it reports so I wouldn't worry about what it says but you could clean up a few things.

  1. Run Disk Clean Up from within Windows: https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/4026616/windows-10-disk-cleanup and look here: https://neosmart.net/wiki/disk-cleanup/
  2. Run System Optimizer if you have it? https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#UsingSystemOptimizer/UsingSystemOptimizer.htm%3FTocPath%3DUsing%2520System%2520Optimizer%7C_____0
  3. Download the free version of CCleaner and run it (Optional): https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/download
That will clean up most of the unneeded files on your system.

Thanks,
