If you are certain you do not ever want to uninstall SP2,
then you can allow Disk Cleanup to remove this.
However, bear in mind that this folder contains YOUR system
as it was pre SP2, and deleting it is a one way process.

Subject: [access-uk] Is this folder safe to delete?
Wen looking in the C:\Windows folder of my XP Pro
system I noticed a folder with the name
$Ntservicepackuninstall. It was a hidden folder, Read only
of almost 350 mb containing over 2,000 files. From its
creation date it seems to have been produced when I
installed SP2.
I am always looking for ways of removing unnecessary
items from my C: drive and if necessary storing them on
another partition on which free space is not so important.
I wonder whether it would be safe to move the folder
in question. Presumably it would only be needed again if I
decided to revert to the original XP, i.e. without sP2.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Douglas
