  1. check if i have ESD file


    My computer is usually slow so I use Disk Cleanup frequently, when it shows me some box list, I just tick all of them. I recently read that i should not delete some file and one of that is ESD file. I do not remember if I delete that file or not and i do not see it in my Disk Cleanup list. What should i do now?

    :)

    check if i have ESD file

    Do I need the install.esd AND installx64.esd files on my disk?


    Hi Adam, welcome to the Ten Forums.

    You can delete those files if you want to, although I would follow the David's suggestion in post above mine.

    If you decide to completely delete them, you might want to first create your own Windows 10 install media from them:
