So I have about 3 GB of potential “junk” in the folder:
/upload/upgrades/patch

As per images below:

Are these files safe to delete?
Gaining back 3 GB server disk space would be nice… :+1:

Thanks in advance
Kind regards :smiley:

Yes, you can delete those, you lose exactly what it says on those titles: the ability to restore from those specific upgrades that you delete.

Thanks for the reply and answer @pgr.
I appreciate it a lot. :facepunch:

But when you have system/server backups of everything it doesn’t matter, right?

Mostly right, yes.

I can see scenarios where undoing an upgrade is better than restoring from backups (because that would also revert your data) but that would be rare, and only apply to the latest upgrade, never to old upgrades.

So I just keep the most recent one or two and delete the rest.
