Microsoft released an update on October 8, 2013 that allows you to remove outdated Windows Updates using Disk Cleanup in
Windows 7.
This update adds a new plugin to the Disk Cleanup wizard. After you install this update, you can use the Windows Update Cleanup option to delete Windows updates that you no longer need.
Notes
- The Windows Update Cleanup option is available only when the Disk Cleanup wizard detects Windows updates that you do not need on the computer.
- To enable you to roll back to previous updates, updates are stored in the WinSxS store even after they are superseded by later updates. Therefore, after you run the Disk Cleanup wizard, you may be unable to roll back to a superseded update. If you want to roll back to a superseded update that the Disk Cleanup wizard deletes, you can manually install the update.
Running Windows Update Cleanup will reduce the size of the
WinSxS folder (component store) and gain more hard drive space.
