[solved]Delete xampp installer.exe after installation

I just wanted to check it is safe to delete the xampp-win32-1.7.4-VC6-installer.exe file after successful installation of xampp1.7.4?

If so, do I simply right click and delete the icon which is on my desktop?

thanks

Sure, but why do you install XAMPP 1.7.4?
This version was very buggy.

Well I was wanting to install joomla locally and googled xampp and this version came up.
seems to be working fine though.
I want to have a go at building a joomla template.
What is the latest version of xampp?

The latest version of XAMPP is XAMPP 1.8.0 and can be found here.
But Joomla has some problems with PHP 5.4 so i would recommend to use XAMPP 1.7.7

best wishes,
