    Is safe to delete the C:\Windows\Panther folder ?

    Step #14 will free up some of the Panther logs: $Windows.~BT folder


    I've not found anything from Microsoft regarding any potential problems when deleting panther logs.

    Third party sources indicate that they can be deleted provided that there are no upgrade problems:

    Is safe to delete the C:\Windows\Panther folder ?

    If you use full OS image backups.. pretty much anything is safe to delete.

    The Panther folder contains logs, related to upgrades, etc. If you're sure you have no need to "undo" those upgrades...then the Panther folder is safe to delete.

    My Panther folder is only 23 KB. So, I'm not gonna worry about it. It has four files (logs) inside.
    Two of those can't be deleted normally. I have to use UnlockIT to unlock those two, before I could even read, let alone delete them.
