If you do and upgrade to Windows 8 you will not be able to reset it. If you have another drive I would make a backup of that folder and place on another drive, then delete it.

You obviously need a larger drive as shown in your other posts, why not have one just for storage that might clear up some space on the SSD.

I do have another external removable drive with 79gb of space which is for just that purpose.I put everything I can think of on it ,which is why I posted this question,I want to migrate to windows 10,not 8.This being said can I delete this folder or move it to my removable drive?
