Problem

Is it safe to delete "amd64" files from my Windows folder? My machine is a Dell using an Intel Processor, so why would I need AMD files? If they are 'protected' how can I delete batches of them? I am using Windows 7 x64 Ultimate

Fix for: What are the amd64 files in Windows 7 x64?

Low Risk

Do not. "AMD64" is the name for the 64-bit instruction set the x64 Windows runs on. It just happens to be AMD who invented the 64-bit x86 instruction set, which Intel copied later on.
