Hi all,


After the 2020 May/June Windows update I wonderfully had a mystery 40 gigs freed up from my main C drive. It was great!


Obviously the windows installation must have removed redundant or unneeded windows installation files, (40 gigs worth!)


But now every day since the disc space has been mysteriously been disappearing.. and I now have only 1 gig free again on my laptop....


I have read dozens of help posts and watched many many YouTube vids about "disc space"- but so far I cant figure this out


I have used storage sense, disc cleanup, disabled hibernation file, deleted old restore points etc. etc. to no avail... I have checked the storage breakdown and have determined the mystery files must be in "system and reserved" as all other possible file locations have nothing new added to them.


Many posts/vids show windows features like "remove old windows installations" in storage sense but my version of windows does not show this option in disc cleanup or storage sense...


Im using Windows 10 pro version 2004

windows feature experience pack 120.2202.130.0



Any ideas are appreciated!


Thank you
