Yes it should not have affected how Windows works but looks like it does i still cannot open Screen Saver Settings trying to repair the issue.

Sorry, you're having an issue
I cleaned up this laptop earlier today after the CU and haven't had any issues, that I've noticed. Sfc /scannow shows no issues, but now I've got to go cleanup the 4000+ files it leaves in \PendingRenames .... lol

Thanks @Eagle51, no worries its was my fault i should have executed command from VM but tell you the true i thing this issue may not cause by deleting folders/files in InFlight folder i have compared the output of Dir command to Rmdir command and all the folders in InFlight folder are not deleted looks like something else cause the issue.
Supposedly installing a trivial Windows Feature like Telnet and not touching the PC for 20 minutes works but it never does for me.
The idea is adding a feature (or installing something I guess) triggers the TiWorker job which tidies up the pending rename/delete. It will stop if PC is busy though thus the no touching it for 20 minutes bit. I read it somewhere but honestly can't remember where or when I'm afraid and while you could try it it never works for me.
What does work for me is Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase and reboot. The reboot is required - Dism without reboot doesn't seem to remove them.
Worth a try perhaps.

I tried the telnet install and it didn't work for me either.Supposedly installing a trivial Windows Feature like Telnet and not touching the PC for 20 minutes works but it never does for me.
Yep, that's the only thing I've found that does try to clean up those folders, but it always leaves a few folders in \InFlight and a few files in \PendingDeletes.What does work for me is Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase and reboot.

Note: I even tried setting Windows Modules Installer service start up to auto to see if it would do the clean up on a restart, but that didn't work either.
YepYou did reboot right?
Note: The folders/files that are left are always in use by Cortana and/or System
\PendingDeletes Folder - There are a few files in use by Cortana
\InFlight Folder - There is one randomnumber folder that's not empty and contains a lot of files in use by the System
