Deleting Windows.Old file from C: Drive

Many has the problem of Windows.Old folder is not deleting.
Is this Folder occupying your valuable resource..??
Here's a simple way to delete Windows.Old folder..

If you install Windows 7,8,etc by performing a custom installation and don't format the partition during the installation process, files that were used in your previous version of Windows are stored in the Windows.old folder.

Open Disk Cleanup by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button. In the search box, type Disk Cleanup, and then, in the list of results, click Disk Cleanup.



If you're prompted to choose a drive, click the drive you just installed Windows on, and then click OK.


In the Disk Cleanup dialog box, on the Disk Cleanup tab, click Clean up system files.


If you're again prompted to choose a drive, click the drive you just installed Windows on, and then click OK.


Select the Previous Windows installation(s) check box, and any other check boxes for the files you want to delete, and then click OK.



    In the message that appears, click Delete Files.
    And you are  done.. Your valuable memory is free for other storage..
