After you have installed all the pending updates, it is safe to delete all the files and folder under C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\
As @Zab said, stop the Update Service while you clean up the folder.
- Enter
net stop wuauserv
into an elevated command prompt- Manually clean up
C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download
- Enter
net start wuauserv
into an elevated command prompt As soon as the service starts again, some folders will be re-created. This is ok.
cleanmgr c:
. You can choose in the program to clean up as user or clean up system as admin.
