Method 1:

- 2018-8-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 (KB4013429) I noticed after recent update on all my windows 10 machines I do a disk cleanup & on the Windows Update Cleanup says 3.99TB of updates to clean up. I ran it fully took over 2 hrs & done &.
- 2019-9-13 After installing a Windows 10 Cumulative Update, when you run Disk Cleanup (cleanmgr.exe) as administrator to cleanup system files, it may incorrectly show 3.99 TB as being occupied by older versions of Windows Updates. This incorrect reporting happens because Disk Cleanup miscalculates the size of WinSxs folder, not taking the hard links into consideration.
Refer to the link to do so. Refer to the section “Windows 8.1, Windows 8 and Windows 7”
2019-7-9 Disk Cleanup has been helpful since ages on the Windows platform. We usually use Disk Cleanup to retrieve storage and help us in fixing various issues. But what if our savior itself falls sick. 2014-4-20 Disk Cleanup stuck on 'Windows update cleanup' Something is very wrong with the windows update clean up. When I press in the 'clean up system files' button, it spends a lot of time on 'windows update cleanup'. However, when it goes back to the clean up tool, 'windows update cleanup' isn't even an option to check.
If the troubleshooter does not work, refer to the section “Manually reset Windows Update components” to reset Windows Update components manually from the link;
