$NTUNINSTALL folders taking up space

by fadbel . Updated 19 years, 10 months ago

I’ve passed on a suggestion to Microsoft Support about the proliferation of the $NTUNINSTALL… folders located in C:\Windows. At last count, I have 130 plus and they are in the way. I know that some may be deleted but it takes knowledge of which can be SAFELY deleted, something which MSUPDATE should do when it checks your system for updates. I suggested that these folders be created in their own “sub-folder” under C:\Windows(\UPDATES?) so we don’t have to scroll past the multitude any time we need to examine something in C:\Windows directory.
It might not be a bad idea if TechRepublic subscribers also passed on this suggestion to Microsoft.
