If you are having issues with updating Windows and get an error that your storage is full, it is most likely some Windows updates haven't been deleted. These steps will help you get rid of that error and help in maintaining free storage for other Windows updates.
1. Go to settings. Click on the Windows logo > Click on Search Bar > Type "settings" > Click on the Settings option
2. Next you will locate your storage settings. Go to System > Storage
3. Once you are on storage settings we will need to turn on a setting that will clean up unused Windows files. You will head to the storage management section it should be on the main storage settings it is called "Storage Sense" (Shown in the image below). Click on it to turn on.
4. When you are finished activating Storage Sense, you will head to the Temporary Files folder.
5. Once you are there you will see several files that can be deleted. You are okay to delete these files, except for the download I would leave that unchecked as it can delete any downloads you have made.
6. Now that you have checked and made sure the right files are selected you can click on Remove Files. This process will take a while I would do this process when you are not planning to use the station for a good amount of time.
6.. If you are still having issues with any Windows updates please feel free to submit a support ticket.
