3. In the Trace files section, click Windows Update logs or Remote installation logs, depending on which trace files you want to delete.

   This opens the Device tracing logs window, where a list of trace files is displayed.

4. In the list of trace files, select one or several files that you want to delete.
5. Click the Remove button.

The selected trace files are deleted.
