In File Explorer, I have below Windows.old, that which is called "Windows10Upgrade." My question is, how do I remove this. Will Disk Cleanup remove this along with Windows.old or do I just delete it. Will appreciate your help with this.

Hi Lawrence,

The folder you are referring to was generated by the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant during the Anniversary Update. If you are satisfied your system is operating fine you can safely remove this folder.

To remove the windows10upgrade folder do the following:
  • In your Search box type Programs and Features then press the Enter key
  • Scroll down and right-click on Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant and select Uninstall

    When this has been uninstalled successfully the windows10upgrade folder located at C:\windows10upgrade will also be removed automatically.

Regards,
