  1. Reserved Storage took more storage than System Files


    So I've finished installing Windows 10 version 1903, To see that I only have 5 GB left on my SSD. (It's a 32 GB SSD.) So I've figured it was only Windows Update files. So I ran Disk Cleanup. After I ran Disk Cleanup, I only have 9 GB. Now I wanted to see what was going on. I went to Settings and went to storage to see this: (See picture below.)

    Even though It was just 2 more GB then System Files, It was still taking more storage. Is there anyway to remove Reserved Storage?

    Storage reserved for Windows Update


    Starting from here:
    What’s New In Windows 10 Version 1903 May 2019 Update
    Reduce Reserved Storage Size in Windows 10
    Find Reserved Storage Size in Windows 10
    Enable or Disable Reserved Storage in Windows 10

    So you can see it can be disabled, and is not necessarily a fixed 7Gb. But of course we don't have the final release yet- that's expected in May.

  4. Reserved Storage took more storage than System Files

    Reserved Storage Information

    Hi Kamil,

    My name is Douglas and I am an Independent Advisor. I would like to help you. "The new reserved storage consists of reallocated temporary files. Those temporary OS files will then be erased when Windows 10 needs the storage space for its updates. The current
    default value for reserved storage is about seven gigabytes"

    More information here:
