Do I Need Main Identity Now that I am Not Using Entourage?

[kerpa]

I stopped using Entourage a couple of years ago. I am unsure if any
Microsoft Office 2004 applications use this other than Entourage. I
don't know if there are settings that I need for PowerPoint, Word or
Excel. Should I delete it? Leave it alone? Thank you.

You can delete the Identity, but the Microsoft User Data folder is used by
all Microsoft applications. I do not suggest that you delete the
application, Entourage. It could cause future updates to fail. It's very
small and not worth the risk.

You need the Microsoft User Data folder, but you can delete the Main
Identity folder in Office 2004 Identities folder.
