Maybe better to move them to server apps folder if they are dexis installation files?

# Clear DEXIS installation files from KaVo Software Manager downloads folder

## Problem
A client workstation was running low on disk space with only 6.98 GB free out of 127.8 GB total on the C:\ drive. TreeSize analysis revealed that 34.0 GB was consumed by the `C:\ProgramData\KaVo\KaVo Software Manager\downloads` folder, containing DEXIS Imaging Suite installation files (24.4 GB) and DEXIS 10 Core Features (6.1 GB), along with various KaVo/DEXIS driver packages.

## Resolution
1. Verify that DEXIS is already installed and functioning properly on the workstation
2. Move the installation files from `C:\ProgramData\KaVo\KaVo Software Manager\downloads` to the server's applications folder for future use
3. Alternatively, if the files are confirmed to be cached installers no longer needed, they can be safely deleted from the client workstation

Moving the files to the server preserves them for potential reinstallation needs while freeing up significant disk space on the workstation.
