re-installing products via smart content : now problem with hard disk space

Hi All, 

I tried to "install" assets from the "Smart Content".
I've already downloaded/installed from the DazCentral program but as there was that little icon that show that you can install (again ?) the asset via Smart Content, so I went on and right clicked on the product and choose "install".
As I have installed a lot of my products via smart content, I started to see my SSD filled out a lot !  
What's the proper way to delete/clean the eventually "temporary" installation files (that I do not need anymore after installation of the product) that might remain on my hard drive without breaking everything !?

Thanks for your help

    Don't instal the same thing in multiple ways - Connect and Daz Central/Install Manager use different locations. Uninstall one of each.

    Thank you Richard for letting me know that.

    I will stop using Daz Central and go with Daz Install Manager instead to install my content.

    I think that Connect is using the folder My DAZ 3D Library\data\cloud to download/update the content.
    I don't know if I can only "update" content thru Connect (...).

    I will do a Content Database Maintenance to clean it up just in case.

    Connect installs will show an update icon (U-arrow) when it knows about them (after going online) and if you right-click>Install Update it will download only the modified files.
