The items in C:SWSetup\Inetsec would not interfere with the new installation. If you want, you can even delete this folder.

thats what I was wondering, if I could safely delete the Inetsec folder

 

Now do you know if the Inetsec folder would contain Windows Security items, like the firewall, windows defender?

HP Recommended

Nope...this only contains norton internet security software but not Windows firewall etc.,

so for sure the Inetsec folder in C:\SWSetup   is the Norton security that was included with the laptop?

How SWSetup folder can be removed from hard disk?

HP Recommended

The SWSETUP folder is not a dependency folder. It is just created when installing any HP Driver or software updates. You can just delete it like any other folder. If you are experiencing problems in deleting it, please let me know the exact error message.
