In my server there are plenty of cab files in
c:\windows\pchealth\errorrep\qsignoff, which are eating away a lot of
disk space. Can someone advise if I can delete them or how to stop them?

Can i off errorrep, buy doing some settings, so this folder won't be created.

Running Disk Cleanup will help you do that.

I usually just delete them, once in a while.

It's one of those Microsoft Ideas which seemed good at the time but no one uses.
