    C windows installer folder - Delete?

    He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink Is this the File deleting windows update? SOLVED ;)
    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.

    Deleting the "SoftwareDistribution" Files

    I noticed that "Depending on your HDD Space and you made sure your Updated on Windows 7" that you can delete all the Files "Going into Safe-Mode of course" but i saw a .Txt File that shows the Updates you've installed "That i deleted by mistake" but by deleting that File i saw the updates needed to be installed again but i knew weren't true.

    So yeah what ya' think? Should this be a good idea? I saw that over 3GB worth of files!
