They are removable at no or little risk, but you may want to keep them around for a few days to see if anything happens that necesitates bringing them back. I remove mine and have not had any issues that I could associate with them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "rs_denis" <rs_denis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <blindtech@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>; <guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2008 5:38 PM Subject: [guispeak] NT asterisk uninstall folders Using windows XP home, service pack 2 with all current updates, I discovered that the first 180 folders that showed under my windows folder had titles which were variants of NT*uninstall. 180 folders of what seem like they must be for updates of windows seems a bit extreme. Would anyone know if these are necessary to keep over time? I would assume that the first 100 or so have been used long enough that it is unlikely I would be uninstalling them. Am I unusual in finding I have this large number of NT*uninstall folders in my windows folder? Do these have a function in addition of facilitating the removal of updates to windows and IE which might turn out to misbehave?
