I prefer my desktop because it is far better for most tasks, especially gaming and coding, plus easily upgradeable. My laptop still has its benefits due to being portable and ok for games, making it good for uni and LAN parties.

Things like DirectX, MS Redists, SQL Server, etc tend to install on on your main drive rather than in the steam folder because steam doesn't control the installation itself. They install where Microsoft want them to install. Your games go in the steam folder because steam itself is the installer, but for the things I listed, they use their own installer. The files in CCleaner that you are asking about are used by Windows for the system restore points. I guess you could delete them if you want, but you'll lose that restore point and could potentially break other stuff Just as a side note about anti-virus software, I personally like Avast, but as long as you avoid Norton and McAfee, you should be fine.
