$NTUninstall*.. Folders
There are 60 of the subject folders in my Windows folder. Are these
necessary? What happens if I delete them?

$NTUninstall*.. Folders
Don't delete the $hf_mig$ directory as this is a general distribution
release store. The others are hotfix and service pack uninstall routines. If you're sure you'll never need to back down then you can delete them. You can delete the keys for them from; HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uni nstall or use the Add/Remove Control Panel applet to remove the entries. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.
