Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Safe to delete previous installations of Vista

Lenin · 2008-10-22 12:30:03

Ran Disk Cleanup there and it says there is 101GB of "Previous Windows Installation(s)" on the disk..I did have to reinstall Vista before but I thought it would write over the OS, not just make another on the disk. Anybody know if they are safe to delete? Take a look see at this screenshot...Gives some info at the bottom

As far as I recall, this is basically a back up of your entire drive as it was before the reinstall. It should include all your personal files and folders that you created. If you did a back-up before reinstalling then it should be safe enough to delete.
