    Hi, Can I safely delete the old installers in C:\ProgramData with folder names like {93EAA4DB-27EC-4331-A128-...}? They're taking up ~2GB on my (relatively small) SSD. Thanks...

    If they're the actual installers, and you installed what you wanted, then I don't see the issue.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I asked because I'm concerned that removing the folders themselves -- which contain a few other small files as well -- may cause problems with Native Access. That program crashes every single time I use it and requires me to manually install the updates it downloads (because this option is not enabled by default). I should note that the folders I'm asking about deleting are hidden away in C:\ProgramData, so I'm assuming that the copies of the installers are stored there for a reason.

    I was hoping someone from NI would chime in. Cheers...
