    Windows update makes Win10-installation grow 8.5 GB


    I have made a new Windows 10 Pro installation. The installation is - version 22H2- OS build: 19045.3803- Exp pack: 1000.19053.1000.0The used space on my disc is then 17.7 GB on an otherwise "clean" PC.Then when I perform "Windows Update" it changes to:- version 22H2- OS build: 19045.4529- Exp pack: 1000.19058.1000.0The used space on the disc has now grown to 26,2 GB.I find it disturbing that an update makes the used space grow this much - and I was hoping I could reduce the used space with a disc cleanup, but the "Settings - System - Storage" tools can not reduce the used space.Am I missing

    :)

    Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

    When in win10:
    • Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....
    Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
    - Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.
