I have a licensed version of EmEditor v24.5.3. While searching for unused programs for disk cleanup, I discovered that EmEditor is keeping backup copies of old version of the installer, going back to 2023. These copies are kept in the c:\ProgramData\Emurasoft\EmEditor\updates folder. The obsolete files are in the “update64_14” directory and in “help_en”. Screen shots below:

and here:

I have no interest in obsolete versions of EmEditor, and I do not want to revert to an older version. Is it okay to delete these older versions of EmEditor from the ProgramData folder?

Also, should the failure of EmEditor to automatically delete old versions of itself when it auto-updates be construed as a bug which can be fixed?
