    Hi All .
    I have rolled back to my "Snappy" wds 8.1 --- and yet I'd made a copy of wds10 and Imaged it .."In case" ..
    ..and it shows in C drive a "windows" folder ." Just like when you upgrade to w10 ..with windows old folder"
    Can I delete it ...?

  2. Rolling back to 8.1

    Well, I have Lumia 532 and whenever I open the MS word, ppt or excel apps, it says that I have to get Office 365 to create new documents but I can view the following documents on my phone.

    I have however rolled back to Windows 8.1 and I am beginning to likw it.

    Thank you for your trouble.

    Rolling back to 8.1

    Of course you can create documents in word excel and powerpoint for free. You are wrong.

    (BTW ..I'm extremely happy to roll back to w8.1 ..so much better ..took me a long time to set up all programs and settings )

    Thanks

    You may have cleaned up C:\Windows.old but not C:\Windows. You can't, that's where the operating system lives mostly. Delete that you have nothing and I don't see how Windows itself would let you delete it.

    Sort of like the picture of a guy out on a tree limb sawing off the limb between himself and the trunk!
