Hi

My C: drive is filling up with IIS logs going back to 2020.

Can I remove these log files?

Also why is there 2 x W3SVC folders with both contain today log entries...?

    That's a call for you to make. ConfigMgr does not require them for any reason, so they are certainly safe from an operational perspective to delete.

    Also why is there 2 x W3SVC folders with both contain today log entries...?

    Because you have two websites in IIS. Probably one for the default web site and one for the WSUS web site.
