They are uninstall folders for windows updates/service packs. Leave them
exactly were they are. if you start deleting them you may end up with
problems.

Thanks for the info.

Blue just means that they are 'compressed.' My recommendation is
to delete such folders IF they are more than 6 months old. - RM
