Backups Folder in Netwrix Auditor

Question

The Backups folder located in C:\ProgramData\Netwrix Auditor\Backups occupies some space after multiple upgrades done previously. Is it safe to delete it?

Answer

It is strongly recommended to keep the backups for supported versions. Once a version is not supported, it is safe to delete the corresponding backups. As of August 2023, there are 3 supported versions (10, 10.5, and 10.6). Refer to the following link for additional information on supported versions of Netwrix Auditor: https://www.netwrix.com/supported_versions.html#na.

NOTE: The Backups folder contains backups for prior versions of Netwrix Auditor in case some files are corrupted during an upgrade. It may contain backups for all versions previously used in your environment.
