[MiKTeX] Local repository

[Jeff B. <jb...@co...>]

I recently installed MikTeX (full) on a new machine. I started by 
downloading files to a local repository from the network then the 
installer used that repository to do the actual system install/build.

Is there any good reason to keep the local repository and/or is there 
any harm in deleting it? Its size is approximately 1.66GB.
