    Hi Saltgrass, thanks for the reply.

    Looking at the bottom of the update notes it says the SSU cannot be uninstalled. It does list the files that are part of the SSU though. Should I hunt and delete each of those files? Can those files be deleted without other irreparable harm to the OS?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    I saw this update on my PC and installed it.

    After restart, my C:/ drive storage where Windows is installed showed just 63 GB free which is supposed to have around 170 GB free.

    I performed disk cleanup to remove the update installations remaining but it didn't work.

    I see the storage sense and can see 91 GB temporary files but clicking it reveals less than 1GB in total.

    I uninstalled this Update back but no change. I see servicing stack is also installed but I cannot uninstall it.

    How should I gain the storage back?

    Please help

    Is anyone else having alt tab issues after this update? Ever since I installed the update. When I alt tab into Fallout 76 I can't move without using the right click. I can't even alt tab into Genshin Impact, the game just kicks me to the desktop. I have to repeatedly click it on the taskbar to be let back in.

    Ah ,,

    I got it fixed by removing the temporary files.

    Started RUN and typed %temp% and then delete those all.

    :)

    Seems that after this update the following 2 issues are happening:

    1. If I have all open applications minimized and I press the Windows Key for the start menu, the menu opens but is not focused, so I still have to click the menu to focus on it. My usual activity is to press the windows key, type the name of an application, and hit enter if it finds it to open it.
    2. Taskbar crashing randomly when trying to shift to another application. Hard to judge exact steps to reproduce but has crashed several times over the last few days since update. It then refreshes the screen and the taskbar.

    Not sure how to get support to notice this. Hoping this reply does!
