Removing/deleting installers, will that affect Ezdrummer 2+expansions?

[drisa]

Hi
On my main computer I have installed Ezdrummer 2 (2.2.1) with Dream Pop, Reggae and the Hip-Hop! expansions.
On my second computer I have installed Ezdrummer 2 (2.1.8) and the Hip-Hop! expansion.

In my download folder on my Mac, I found a folder called Toontrack and there were some installers inside of it (see pictures).
I was wondering if I could delete these installers? Or will they affect Ezdrummer 2 and its expansions somehow?
They’re taking up disk space and I don’t have much left.

On my main computer, there is also a folder with Toontrack installers and it would be nice if I could also remove them so I could save some disk space.
Best regards
Isa

In product manager there’s a clean up button to manage your downloaded installers. As long as you haven’t installed your Toontrack sample library in the same download folder (it doesn’t happen often but it has, in the past, gotten a couple of users), it should be safe to remove the installers this way.

Sorry for the late reply, didnt get a notification about any new messages.

Cant really find where the sample library is installed even though i’ve searched for it.
I could only find what I’ve shown here on the pictures that I uploaded.
But I think I understand what you mean.

But just to be perfectly clear to avoid any unnecessary mistakes:
According to the new picture that I uploaded, should I:
1: Press Clean up/Delete installed Mac downloads?
2: Press the x markers?
3: Press clean up in the lower square?

By default your sound files should be installed in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/EZDrummer, unless you performed a custom install or moved them. My sound libraries (SD3 and EZD) all live on external SSD drives so YMMV.

I usually just use the grey button at the bottom of Product Manager.
