Windows 10: windows 10 pro update to 1803

My computer has 111gig of hard disk space.


Windows 1803 update fails because there is not enough space available.


I then started to delete files and programs to create the space. Each time I created 2-3 gig of space it was eaten

up by the update and still failed. Eventually I run out of stuff I could delete. Data files copied to USB drives,

programs uninstalled, leaving just a virtually empty shell of a computer. Windows file says it using 27gig of space.

I don't know what's going on because I have 111Gig minus 27gig minus 10 gig for basic programs & files should leave

a massive 74gig free? No, I currently have 33 MEGABYTES free - and the update still runs out of space!


So I have nearly 100Gig dedicated to update 1803 and it's not enough!


What can I do? My computer no longer works properly because I have no hard disk space.


What a pathetic state of affairs, an update I did not want and have no control over at all!

Next Major Windows 10 Update Named "Spring Creators Update"

The next Windows 10 service pack major update has been named "Spring Creators Update." Windows Insider Program users toying with Build 17618 of the operating system spotted a listing of all the major updates of Windows 10 known to the build, when running "Get-VMHostSupportedVersion" in Power Shell. The last entry reads "Microsoft Windows 10 Spring Creators Update 1803." The version number (1803 in this case), often coincides with the public release date of the update. The Fall Creators Update 1709, released in 2017-09 (September) to Insiders. Going by that convenion, Spring Creators Update could see a "branded" Insider preview build this month, 2018-03 (March), with a public release usually 3-4 weeks after, presumably before Summer kicks in.
