    Disk bloat in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

    Is it my imagination, or does the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update consume an additional 20-30GB of disk space over the previous Creators Update release? Unfortunately, I didn't log my disk usage before the upgrade, but now my C: drive has 56GB of stuff, and I know it wasn't anywhere near that full before. I've run "Disk Cleanup -> Clean up system files" and selected everything on the list, including remove previous version of Windows. I also emptied my Recycle Bin, my Temp folder, \Windows\Temp folder, and \Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder. Finally, I ran Wise Disk Cleaner to delete assorted application garbage.

    Has anyone else noticed the bloat in Fall Creators Update?

    Disk cleanup don't cleans Windows Update Cleanup.

    For us to better assist you, we would like to ask a few questions regarding disk clean up.

    • Have you made any updates or changes to your computer before experiencing this issue?
    • Are you getting any error messages when cleaning the Windows Update Clean up?
    • Have you tried any troubleshooting steps before posting this concern? If yes, what are those?

    Looking forward to your response.

    I been stuck at windows update disk clean up for years now.

    Windows 10 Insider 15007 stuck at 95%.

    Sup people! Happy New Year to those I haven't given it to. I'm having some serious problems trying to upgrade to the latest Insider build. I'm currently in 15002.1001 on the fast ring. I'm stuck downloading the updates @ 95%.

    I have done the following:
    1. Stopped the Windows Update Service and deleted the all the files inside the Downloads folder from the SoftwareDistribtuion (I needed to finish those steps in Safe Mode because it wouldn't delete them while "normal", even with taking ownership).
    2. Tried running "latestwe.diagcab" (Windows Update Troubleshooter) and it fixed the Database Corruption Store from the Windows Update.
    3. I have turned off Delivery Optimization (the one which shares Windows Update from local PCs and from the Internet).
    4. I've rank Disk Cleanup and CCleaner and cleaned everything up.
    5. Ran sfc -scannow and chkdsk -f and no problems were found.

    I seriously do not know what else I can do, except for doing a manual update from Winaero's blog (Download Windows 10 Build 15007 ISO images - Winaero) or a clean install (Which I'd like to avoid).

    Any other suggestions?
