Hmm ... Microsoft's track record lately hasn't exactly been stellar.
And I didn't get updates this week till yesterday. I think I'll wait
till Sunday or Monday before deleting.
Unless ... the first-level subdirectories under LCU are dated
2025-03-26, 2025-04-09, and 2025-04-23. Is it safe to delete older
ones and leave only the most recent one in place?

And it's a waste of time having Macrium Reflect back it up.
Although, my HIBERFIL.SYS is 6½ GB, and that gets backed up. To
control that, as far as I know, I'd have to change my C: image backup
to a file and folder backup. Goodness knows what that would do to the
backup of the small recovery partitions that are automatically part
of the C: image backup.
