Winsxs again ! ( The usual fix dont work)
Hello.... I am disappointed that Microsoft cant sort this out.
For a couple years ago, we all remember the "winsxs" bug.
(Lots of storage GB of the drive used by WinSxS)
Clean Up the WinSxS Folder | Microsoft Docs
Breaking News! Reduce the size of the WinSxS Directory and Free up Disk Space with a New Update for Windows 7 SP1 Clients | Ask Premier Field Engineering (PFE) Platforms
Back then, I read lots of deep-knowledge about this issue when the usual fixes didnt work.
So this problem can be a nightmare and If you have a 120GB SSD drive and suddenly
the winsxs-folder takes 20GB of that! Also after successful clean the problem could return, because of pending updates-job and you had to do it all over (!)
Briefly some things that seems to help, in most cases:
*Run the disk-cleanup tool
*cleanmgr.exe and select systemcopies etc
*bla bla dont work
*net stop WUA service
*delete contents of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloads
*net starting WUA
*Installing the so-called "Fix" for this kb/2852386
*Edit registry for a tweak to NEVER pick this up again.
But Now 2018-03-xx its back in one of my WINDOWS7 machines!
~16 GB storage in the winsxs folder, this preventing me of using the computer and storage
a onedrive sync I am also paying for
