Default Help! Should I remove this file?

I'm removing some freeware that I downloaded that doesn't do what it said it would. However, when I go to remove it via "Add / Remove programs" it says the file NCTWMAFile.dll in C:\WINDOWS\system32 is not in use by other progs, and would I like to remove it?

Should I leave it in place or remove it?

It also has a "yes to all" option so presumeably it's going to bring more of these up, should I leave them all in place?

I'm running XP so can always do a system restore I assume if these files are important??

TIA

Don't worry it's fine to remove all. It's just a prompt to check and ask you if those files are used for anything else. This is unlikely as they were installed for the app you are trying to remove If you're still in doubt, yeh just do a system restore.
