Do you need policy registry to exclude driver updates from Windows update?

Run Disk cleanup as administrator.

Tick (checkmark) all.

Continue to delete data inside WU SoftwareDistribution folder.

Now, these would give more room for newer Windows Updates, also get rid of corrupting Windows Updates.

-It does happen, if user device or server, has become so corrupt, that you need to perform In-place upgrade. Unfortunately, corrupted states, you don't get to keep apps. Plan for apps installation day, and down time on servers. On user devices, everything need manual installation for apps.

If the server is not corrupted, or user device not corrupted, you get to keep data and apps. This in-place upgrade is solution for fix.
