Windows 10: Creators update and extra folders.

As I did not get any indication of update in windows update section, I updated from
Download Windows 10
.
Every thing went ok.
I tried cleaning extra folders and system with following commands.
%SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c Cleanmgr /sageset:35 & Cleanmgr /sagerun:35
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase

It cleaned windows.old and ~*.BT folders.

Still I am left with
$GetCurrent
Windows10UpGrade
$WINRE_BACKUP_PARTITION.MARKER
occupying 196kb,19.8MB and o.

Is there any use for these folders?
Can it be deleted?
If possible to delete, can it be deleted just admin?

WIN 10 Fall Creators Update and WINDOWS.Old Folder

This is just sort of an interest thing. I have several workstation running Windows 10 with the Fall CREATOR Update installed now. I have had success removing the WINDOWS.Old folder with no repercussions.

My questions is when does the WINDOWS.Old folder become visible? I am just finishing a fresh Laptop install and it ran the 1709 Fall Creator update. I am not seeing the folder. HOWEVER, I instantly ran the DISK CLEANUP and selected Delete Windows Update
Files. This system has been working at it now for about 30 minutes. So, I am assuming that folder was somewhere.

Just curious if it is large enough of a folder that it may require a little extra time for WIN 10 to digest and produce the folder.

Thanks,

Eddie

 

"Welcome to Messaging+" notification

I don't appear to have All apps » Settings » Extras

I have Apps » Apps & features » Extras » Extras & info and then the move or uninstall
option.

If I go Settings » Extras I then get Network services, Do you have a question?, Get help, Make Windows better and Give us feedback.

Now, when I received the phone it had been reset to WP8 (or 8.1) and after installing all available updates for that OS, I upgraded to WP10. Subsequently I received the Anniversary update and have now
installed the Creators edition so that it's running Windows 10 Mobile, version 1703, build 10.0.15208.0

I honestly can't remember if the Messaging+ banner began showing with the Anniversary update or with the Creators edition, but I did feel the need to reset Creators and the banner remained.

I then discovered the aforementioned workaround.

Interestingly, my son has a 550 which I think is running Creators edition and he has not reported having this issue.
