    can I delete Windows10Upgrade after upgrading to windows 10


    After successful upgrading to windows 10 I was left with 3 folders that weren't in system disk before:
    Windows10Upgrade
    $GetCurrent
    inetpub
    they're not big but I don't like redundant folders
    I did few times Disk Cleanup after system cleanup
    so maybe they're needed but for what?
    thank you

    :)

    Windows keeps trying to update my system. help!

    Hi,

    The Windows10Upgrade folder is created when you install the Widows 10 Upgrade Assistant to update to the latest version of Windows 10. If you no longer need the Windows 10 Update Assistant app, you can remove it to safely delete the Windows10Upgrade folder.
    Follow the steps below to do so:

    • Click the Start menu button, type programs and features and press
      Enter.
    • Locate the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant and select Uninstall.
    • When Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant has finished uninstalling, the Windows10Upgrade folder will be deleted.

    Let us know if you need further help.

    I just upgraded to Windows 10 anniversary update.

    I now have a folder on my C drive called Windows10Upgrade.

    Is it safe to delete this folder?

    Thanks

    This is the information for inetpub:
    As for the other two folders, I don't have them on my computer. They seem to be temporary folders used for the upgrade. I would delete them.

    thank you for your prompt answer
    will do what you instructed for inetpub

    It is under Programs and Features. Then in the left column click on Turn Windows features on or off.
