del all file in
Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\*.*

for safety use cleaning software like CCleaner / TuneUpUtilities

also you can try SP1 cleanup.
*open command prompt (type CMD at start menu, right click at cmd open as administrator)
*type vsp1cln.exe then hit enter
*follow the step, wait until finish then see how many GB will recovered

is diz same like using Disk Cleanup in properties at each partition?

Nope, it's not the same. I'd recommend that you give it a try. Remember to launch "CMD" in "Administrator Mode".
PS: Do it at your own risk.

I'm not sure about the risks but I've done the process in "Administrator Mode" in numerous computers already. So far, so good. unsure.gif

Most likely it won't delete it but you should add your "backup'd folder" to it's exceptions list.

About the vsp1cln.exe method, what will actually happen once we do it? Will it clean/delete our files?

I think it deletes the installer cache from the Service Pack 1 installation. I ran it (vsp1cln.exe) but it didn't mention what files were being cleansed/deleted.

So, how much space did it actually free up?
