I wouldn't see why not. They may need to be deleted one by one via the in-game library. [Select one, and click the trashcan in the lower left hand corner of the popup.]

However, if you want to delete a whole bunch of files at once. Exit the game, and go to your Tray folder, highlight all the files and click delete. - Click one file and then press the A and Ctrl keys together to select all then hit delete.

Path -- \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Tray

This is assuming you've backed up the houses/lots and household files you want to keep backed up.

ty  :) MrsFlynn. I did this one. (I wouldn't see why not. They may need to be deleted one by one via the in-game library. [Select one, and click the trashcan in the lower left hand corner of the popup.) Some of my sim family's started messing up, because some I made b4 the Stuff packs/Expasion pack's came out. One family after this new one came out. Must be that new update/Get Together. Also read on EA Fourm that you shouldn't delete the tray? Is this true?

Hmm... I don't think that is true or my game would be totally messed up. *Snicker* With the testing I've done recently. I've put files in the Tray folder and deleted those files a few different times without it messing up my game.

All that is in the Tray folder are families, houses and lots you've created and saved to your library. If you end up deleting those files all that happens is you're creations are gone. It shouldn't mess up the game at all.
