Once you remove the folder and reboot, a new folder is created and Windows
Update will use this folder for subsequent retrieval and storage.

You can remove the old one.

Remember, once you remove the folder (basically initiating Windows Update),
you should perform a manually Express update check so that everything is
re-downloaded and initialized.

NOTE: all Windows Update History information is lost, so if you check
Update History on the Windows Update web-site, it will be empty. This is
really no loss. It will start to log history from that point on. It has no
effect on your system or Add/Remove Programs information.

Does this mean that none of the stuff in there is usable anymore? Can I
just chuck or move the whole folder now? Thinking of moving it to
another partition.
