The reason why the Windows installation drive lost more than 10 GB of space

The Anniversary Update is the biggest update since its release Windows 10 and is considered an upgrade to a completely new Windows operating system.

When you upgrade, Windows creates a folder Windows.old contains the system files of the old version of Windows. This makes it easy to roll back to the version of Windows before the upgrade if you don’t like the new version.

The Windows.old folder takes up more than 10 GB of disk space

However, this Windows.old folder takes up more than 10 GB of storage space in the Windows installation drive. This is quite annoying if your computer has limited storage space.

Although Windows will automatically delete the Windows.old folder after 10 days (from the date of upgrade). But if you want to reclaim the storage space right away, then follow the instructions below.

Note:Don’t delete the Windows.old folder if you want to roll back to the version of Windows before the upgrade (but it’s recommended to go back within 10 days of the upgrade, because it won’t be back after 10 days).

You can roll back to the version of Windows 10 before the upgrade by opening Settings -> Update & Security > Recovery. Then press the button Get Started in section Go back to an earlier build to begin.
