Now available in 5536, you can use the Disk Cleanup utility to delete
Windows.old. Prior to this feature, you probably had to wrestle with file
permissions, and the delete took a *long* time. This new feature is much
quicker.
Start->c-l-e-a-n, Press Enter
Select "Files from all users on this computer" (requires elevation)
(wait while it scans for things to clean up)
Make sure "Previous Windows installation(s)" is checked
Click OK and confirm at the "safety" prompt.
