Oracle 12c Archive Log growing on Windows 2012 R2, delete manually?

3425375Jan 4 2018 — edited Jan 4 2018

Hello,

i have a windows 2012 r2 server that has oracle 12c, the archive logs or the ARC0000000.*.0001 are growing more and more, and sadly i cant connect to RMAN to delete them, so i am wondering if i can delete them manually on the windows system/folder? i wont be/and have not taking an RMAN backup, i only do a data dump every night.

let me know, i have another thread that is troubleshooting my connection issue to RMAN/SQLplus, its error message:

ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor.

here is my other thread below discuss and troubleshooting it, still no resolution yet

Oracle 12c SQL developer works but SQLplus doesnt work, Could not resolve the connect Identifier specified
