    Is it safe to delete the empty folder <C:\ProgramData\regid.1991-06.com.microsoft> ?

    Hi,

    Is it safe to delete the empty folder <C:\ProgramData\regid.1991-06.com.microsoft>?

    I just installed win 10 pro and i see this folder in my programData folder. It is empty. I understand it has to do with Windows updates from previous windows versions? Since I used a fresh install, the folder is empty and I would like to delete it. I am
    just not sure if it would cause harm if I did delete it.

    I deleted regid.1991-06.com.microsoft on my other PC, and it boots up to a black screen now. How do I fix this?

    Deleted the entire folder, swidtag and all. Like a ****. I have another laptop with this file on it, and I moved it to a USB key so I could replace it on this other PC. But like I said- it boots to a black screen and I can't see anything or do anything.
    I have an MSI motherboard, I'm not sure how to boot into safemode with a pureblack screen. I can't change to another user because I don't have one. Just this single profile, with the folder deleted. Help!

    C://ProgramData/regid.1991-06.com.microsoft (File path for folder that got deleted).

    How to delete regid.1991-06.com.microsoft in Windows.Old folder?

    Windows 10 home or pro

    Rich,

    I have Windows 10 Home. I have the folder C:\ProgramData\regid.1991-06.com.microsoft and it contains
    regid.1991-06.com.microsoft_Windows-10-Home.swidtag

    I think this is the most reliable method given that people are known to manually add C:\Windows\System32\gpedit.msc to the Home Edition.
    Of course, somebody could also add/substitute the file
    regid.1991-06.com.microsoft_Windows-10-Home.swidtag
    or
    regid.1991-06.com.microsoft_Windows-10-Pro.swidtag
    but only if they were trying to kid themselves for no logical reason.

    Denis
