Has anyone deleted the old Windows program files,after installing Win10?

Are you referring to reclaiming disk space after the upgrade? Here are a couple of articles we've done on it:

I have installed Windows 10 on two laptops, one desktop and two tablets and removed all of the windows.old files without any problems.. don't plan on going back to previous releases which were windows 7 and windows 8.1 on all machines. Have had very few problems with any of the computers at this point.
