    Windows.old location?


    Can someone please point me to the .old folder? I have searched but can't seem to locate it. My disk cleanup is showing it's there.

    Have a look at this Microsoft article.

    If you read through it, it does suggest where the Windows.old folder should be - typically under your C drive.

    Hi toughbook

    It is under Local Disk C://Windows

    (C) would be replaced with whatever driver you are using for your operating system.

    Good luck,
