What information do these folders contain and can I safely delete them?

These are temporary folders Windows creates when doing Windows Updates. Windows puts these on whichever partition on your computer that's the biggest - for most people, usually the C drive. When you reboot after updates, Windows should get rid of these temp folders, but sometimes something will go wrong and it won't delete. It's usually safe to delete these folders, but you might want to set a system restore point beforehand to make sure.

Where exactly are the folders located?
They could be temp files, which you can delete, but could also be something more important.
You might be able to open the files within the folders to have a look.
If in doubt, don't delete them.
