$NTUninstall DirectoriesI have 180M of these directories on my C: disk. I just dumped them to a CD and
now I want to delete them. My thinking is that they would only get used if I ever wanted to Unistall a FIX, they are NOT used for running or 'normal' backup. Any problems with this? Thanks, John Correct. No problem with doing that.

Logically I suppose since the $NtUninstallKxxxxxxx folders would be gone then there's no reason why I can't clear all the KB entries out of AR as well then.

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall else; Control Panel|Add/ Remove|"program" you'll be prompted something to the effect "can't be found" and given the option to remove the entry. -- Show quoteHide quoteRegards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.
