Sergey,

>>My Win7 Professional machine has about 3 dozen leftover folders off the root of my C drive that seem to be from Windows Updates (They are named like this '6a7d1eaeedab489e013a0a') . Now, I have had some trouble getting some updates to install and have since cleared up most if not all of these problems but I would now like to get rid of some or all of these. I have attempted to delete them but cannot as I need SYSTEM permission to delete them. I have tried to change the security settings on the folder without success as well. I am also logged on as an Admin.
