DDU Not Working?

After just now running DDU it said all Nvida stuff was successfully uninstalled & I can tell it works because the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter is running in place of my 1060. Although I double checked & under Local Disk (C:) there's an Nvidia folder containing what looks like everything for the driver I just uninstalled. Is it safe to delete this now or will the new driver install automatically do this for me?

I did & those files were still there, now sub folders within Nvidia show for my previous display driver & the now current updated version. I guess next time I'll just delete them after uninstall unless someone advises otherwise.
