"sharedresource" folder? nothing to delete lol, it's the game.

you may want to clear the cache, but it will fill up again

you want too delete the logs of the game in "document\EVE\Logs" if you play since a long time this folder have every chat log, combat log, etc... it may be big

if u got the new launcher, there's a shared cache checkup tool built in that removes any unnecessary files in the shared cache folder

you can do better than the graphical "verify" option from new launcher, but I'll post that in a ticket and wait an answer from a gm on why the tools does not clean up everything.
