After updating WinXPpro to SP1 and some other critical updates, the size of
drive C increased nearly 600 MB. A close look revealed that under Windows
directory, there are many small folders named "$NtUninstallKB xxxx $" and a
250 MB $NtServicePackUninstall$ folder, plus another 250 MB ServicePackfile
folder. Without "this folder is safe to remove" label like in IE6 sp1, I
don't know if I can remove these folders or not. At first, I think these
files are needed for XP's system restore, later I noticed, after updating,
same folders exist under win2k, where no system restore is available. What
are these files used for? Can I delete them?
Thanks for suggestion.
