After building opencv-4.1.2 on windows 7 64 bit. using visual studio 2019 and cmake and python. i have the build folder contains many folders and files.
So what can i delete (files and folders) that are un-necessary to my projects?
The tutorial i've followed to build it says selct 'BUILD_ALL' then 'INSTALL'. when i build install i get a folder named "install".
I want to know what does INSTALL build do?
The folder I used to build open_cv contains configue files generated by cmake.

After building finished, then in the build folder, you can find a folder calls install
, so you only keep the install
folder and delete all other files and folders.
The INSTALL means, all the libs and DLL files will be stored in in a folder that calls the install folder inside the build folder. All you need are in the install folder (libs, dlls, data, ...)
