Stoga ga zahtijeva Windows Update , a održava ga WUAgent .

^{(SoftwareDistribution)}Lokacija mape SoftwareDistribution

Mapa za distribuciju softvera u sustavu Windows ^{(Software Distribution)}Windows 11/10/8/7 nalazi se na sljedećem mjestu u File Exploreru^{(File Explorer)} :

C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution

Na mom računalu je veličina oko 1 MB, ali može varirati.

Je li sigurno izbrisati mapu SoftwareDistribution

Iako ne želite dirati ovu mapu u normalnim uvjetima, možda ćete morati isprazniti njezin sadržaj ako otkrijete da su pohrana podataka vašeg sustava i mapa za preuzimanje ^(Download)desinkronizirani^(Datastore) , što rezultira da vaša ažuriranja sustava Windows^{(Windows Updates)} ne rade ispravno.

Općenito govoreći, sigurno je obrisati sadržaj mape za distribuciju softvera^{(Software Distribution)} nakon što se sve datoteke koje je zahtijevala upotrijebe za instalaciju Windows Update . Čak i ako inače izbrišete datoteke, one će se automatski preuzeti. Ako biste izbrisali samu mapu, automatski će se ponovno kreirati i automatski će se preuzeti potrebne komponente WU-a.

Međutim, ova pohrana podataka također sadrži vaše datoteke povijesti Windows Update^{(Update History)} . Ako ih izbrišete, izgubit ćete povijest ažuriranja . ^(Update)Štoviše, sljedeći put kada pokrenete Windows Update , to će rezultirati duljim vremenom otkrivanja.

If your Windows Update is not working properly or not working at all or if you find that the size of this folder has really grown large, then you can consider deleting the Software Distribution folder in Windows 11/10/8/7.

Ako se radi samo o veličini, onda ako koristite alat za čišćenje diska^{(Disk Cleanup Tool)} i odlučite se za čišćenje sistemskih datoteka^{(Clean up System Files)} na pogonu sustava^{(System Drive)} , a zatim komponente Windows Update i datoteke za ^{(Windows Update)}optimizaciju isporuke^{(Delivery Optimization)} , otkrit ćete da će se veličina ove mape znatno smanjiti. Ali ako se susrećete s problemima Windows Update , poznato je da ispiranje ove mape pomaže u rješavanju nekoliko problema kao što su Windows Update koji ne radi^{(Windows Update not working)} , Windows Updates se ne uspijevaju instalirati^{(Windows Updates fail to install)} , Neuspjeh konfiguriranja ažuriranja sustava Windows , Windows Update je zapeo u preuzimanju ažuriranja^{(Windows Update stuck downloading updates)} , Nismo mogli dovršiti ažuriranja,^{(We couldn’t complete the updates,)} Windows 10 nastavlja instalirati isto ažuriranje^{(Windows 10 keeps installing the same update)} i tako dalje.
