I did upgrade from Windows XP to Windows Vista Home Premium, my question is
Windows Vista create a special folder to keep files from the previous OS. If
yes can it be deleted, Windows Vista is working great... I don't see the need
to keep old files. Thanks
 
You can use Disk Cleanup in Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\System Tools to
delete the folder with previous OS files.

Yes it wraps up everything from the XP installation in the Windows.old
folder. You have to set the options to display hidden folders to see it.
You can recover data from there if needed. If not, just delete it.

probably deleted it, already.
