    Win 10 How to get rid of Windows.old folder and content.


    *Think

    As always, there seems to be lots of alleged fixes out there, which may work on versions earlier than Win 10... but not with Win 10. The struggle for getting rid of this now un-needed bloat seems to be wrapped up in file permissions. But even when I try to clobber it with administrative authority, it won't budge. One fix suggests that you can use disk cleanup to get rid of it by selecting previous installation files. Heh. Yeah. Just TRY and find that option in Win 10.

    Ok. Somebody hopefully has managed to resolve this inigma. Step by step, please. getting rid of computer and want to delete everything :)

    Get rid of internet explorer

    I don't think it is possible to remove both IE and MS Edge from your Computer. They're pretty much built-in Browsers that are hard to take out.

    And think about it this way. What if you deleted IE and MS Edge and then you somehow deleted Firefox(It most likely won't happen but it could). How would you browse the Internet and download Firefox again or get another Browser?

    I'm sure there are Tutorials online that can help you with getting rid of the two Browsers but I would suggest that you don't get rid of them and just leave them as is. You don't need to touch them if you don't want them.
