The system removes the Windows.old folder after 30 or 10 days. This means you won't have to manually delete it using a cleanup tool.

I'm fairly certain the directory is removed once it's been there for 30 days.

You can remove it at the beginning if needed.

Maybe I was mistaken. I assumed Microsoft offered more flexibility. I think a ten-day trial isn't enough to truly gauge your preference for an operating system.
