Windows 10: Can I delete from C:\Drivers?

I went to check my storage and saw that a lot of the storage taken was from Other. I clicked on it and saw that most of the storage from Other was from C:\Drivers. I was just wondering if there is anything I can do to optimize the storage in C:\Drivers? Can I delete certain files? Or is it best to leave it and invest in an external hard drive?

C windows installer folder - Delete?

He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink
Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

Like:
First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
Then type this in command mode as admin
mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.
