Free Up Drive Space in Windows 10  

Hello @Brink

I think, Enable or Disable Reserved Storage in Windows 10 should be added here.
It's a 7GB 'mountain', a little bit useless, imo.

THANK YOU for everything here!!!

Dism does not recognize the command-line option "cleanup-image".

and from the dism.log

Code:

For the dism commands make sure there is a / before cleanup-image
dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
