I buy a new computer.

From the old one I pick the disk (with 2 partitions: BOOT and DOCS) and installed in the new, as a slave disk.

Everything ok, my new computer recognize and give names Disk 1 (e.\ and f.)

Now I want to delete the old system folders (System Volume Information, inetpub, Windows, Users, ProgramData, Program Files, etc) and I´m not allowed, even as Adminitrator!

How can I get delete this redundant folders?

Both computers with Windows 7 Professional

    Thank you for your detailed answer, but didn´t work!

    In the "HKEY Current User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" folder only appear the ACTAL folders (C:\Users\myname\*) and I want to delete the OLD ones!

    They are now in my E:\ drive (in the old computer C:). So I want to delete the now called: e:\Program Files, e:\ProgramData\ and e:\Windows. All with unused files (and most duplicates)! And eating near 20GB!

    Any other idea?
