My winnt folder (win2k sp4) contains several uninstall folders. I am not sure, but some of them look to be from pre-sp4 days. In Add/Remove Programs, all post-sp4 hotfixes begin with kb82xxxx. Is it safe to delete the older uninstall folders??

These folders, according to what I know, are created just in case you want to uninstall SP4 or just incase something went wrong while applying the SP4 update. As the folder state, it is safe to delete all those files. However you won't be able to remove the SP4 update ...

I'm talking about SP4, but I don't really understand if they are SP4 folders or just Hotfixes. In either case they are safe to delete, but uninstall capabilities will fade away, *I THINK*
