    Also, you can to download "Glary Utilities", and inside the "Clean Disk", you can able the squares selection for "Windows Updates" and "Windows Installer Temporary". Glary Search for all the "copies" witch Windows lets in your hard disk. You can recovery the same space rather the procedures describes early in this thread.*Wink

    does w10 disk cleanup remove windows updates?

    Those are files that Windows Updates downloaded to and perform installation. You can also manually remove them, they are no longer needed once the updates completed.

    Instead of using regular disk cleanup: cleanmgr.exe
    Open Admin command prompt and run it in extended mode, you will have more options to select, copy and paste the line below:
    %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c Cleanmgr /sageset:35 & Cleanmgr /sagerun:35
