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
 
RE: Update backups

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.
