I have read somethings about this before.

I keep finding people having this problem.

Im going to ask this again for my own sake.

What can I delete after I install the expansions for BFD3.  
It seems that I have to keep the double amount of Files (GB) after the installation.

when I follow the official way to delete the install folder. I loose my files and all is funders of a ock-ters!!!

Anyone have a solution?

You should be using two distinct locations for the expansion download and the actual install. That will eliminate any confusion as to which files you can delete. Once installed to your samples drive location, it is then safe to delete the expansion installer from the downloads location.
