program updates

[jx2mad]

My computer has collected numerous versions of Microsoft visual c updates. Is it safe to delete all but the latest or do I just leave them there? Jim

I would be inclined to leave them.

The fact updates have downloaded implies the pre-update files are already installed. They were probably installed by third party software that relies on them. Deleting the files potentially will break other programs.
