You can reclaim substantial disk space by cleaning up the component store. To do so, run this from Command Prompt (admin).

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

Also, run Disk Cleanup (cleanmgr.exe) as administrator to remove temp files, superseded driver packages, temporary setup files, the delivery optimization cache, and other junk.

Please run the Disk Cleanup tool to reclaim disk space.

• Press Win + R, type cleanmgr.exe and click OK.
• Select the drive (C:), and click OK.
• Click the Cleanup system files button.
• Select the drive (C:), and click OK.
• Select all of the following checkboxes:

Microsoft Defender anti-virus
Windows upgrade log files
Temporary Internet files
System-created Windows Error Reporting files
DirectX Shader Cache
Delivery Optimization files
Device driver packages
Previous Windows installations
Recycle Bin
Temporary files
Temporary Windows installation files
Thumbnails

• Click OK.
• Click Delete Files.

Restart Windows and check the available free space in the C drive.
