Update backups

[Guest Tom]

Is it safe to delete the update backup folders in the C:\Windows folder

(i.e., $NtUninstallKB896727$).

 

I understand that it will prohibit the uninstallation of the update but it

seems unlikely that we'd do so.

 

Thanks,

Tom

hi,

you can delete that folders, but as you think after delete you cant

uninstall that updates.

Re: Update backups

 

Dragos is right - but also keep in mind that this can cause the

application to not be uninstallable...

 

Eg. With ISA 2004, after deleting the updates, the product will not

uninstall if the updates specific to the product are missing.
