How to remove windows.old
Delete your previous version of Windows
Ten days after you upgrade to Windows 10, your previous version of
Windows will be automatically deleted from your PC. However, if you
need to free up disk space, and you're confident that your files and
settings are where you want them to be in Windows 10, you can safely
delete it yourself. Keep in mind that you'll be deleting your
Windows.old folder, which contains files that give you the option to
go back to your previous version of Windows. Deleting your previous
version of Windows can't be undone.
