@Tom no do not delete them, the source link that WeHoChris has provided, it says make sure that the PendingDeletes and PendingRenames folders exist under %WinDir%\WinSxS\Temp. but it doesn't say that you should delete them.

This worked for Windows 8.1, and I didn't even have to check Pending* directories.

Is anyone able to confirm that it is safe to delete the contents of the PendingDeletes and PendingRenames folders? I saw someone say this can break the OS beyond repair (they didn't cite a source).
