- Where are the Windows Update backup files?
Hi,
under XP, backup files from Windows Updates where hidden in the System directory under a name like $NT_9834928743990 I'd like to clean up Win 7 from all backup updates. Where are they stored? Directory? Filenaming convention? Thanks for any help Sincerely, Steve JORDI (Remove the K_I_L_LSPAM from my email address) ------------------------------------------------ 1197 Prangins Email: Switzerland WWW: www.sjordi.com ------------------------------------------------ Volcanoes at www.sjordi.com/volcanoes MovieDB at www.sjmoviedb.com ------------------------------------------------

Dave,
thanks, yes, I think that those are the patches... I'll move them somewhere else and see whether everything is fine without them.

Go to Control Panel Programs Programs and features Installed Updates.
I was talking about the files themselves, like the $NTnnnn directories in Windows XP. The control panel will just show a list of what has been installed. Those are not the actual files themselves. Thanks anyway.
