In XP one can go to drive 'c', then to the windows folder, and remove any/all update install files to gain space. ( I saved 183MB the last time ).
My question is, How does one do this in Vista Home Premium? When you right click my computer and open windows folder, nothing looks like XP. I would like to clean this drive but not till I am sure what to do.
A simple explanation would be useful.

804541 2009-08-26 10:56:00 Well thats that then, the Vista drive has plenty of space on it, so it's not as if it were critical. I just like to keep things tidy.I have ccleaner installed on both drives and run it regularly. A great program, and thanks Speedy for recommending it to me last year. escort1557 (13641)
