Keeping Patch's on our Pc's?

I was going through my C drive and noticed lot's of patchs. Can I delete them or do they need to stay on there?

leave them alone. if you remove them then you will be back open to hackers. you are never safe 100% but the patchs help slow them down from hacking your pc.

They need to stay there.

Uninstalling patches would open you back to vulnerabilities.

Deleting the folders in the Windows folder that begin with "$NtUninstall" can cause your system to become unstable as they may be needed by newer updates or patches at some time in the future.
