does DISM commands also cleanup the update files like Storage and Disk Cleanup does?

I wrote earlier in this thread about problems with device metadata causing printers to malfunction... Yes, It seems like I was correct - just found this announcement:

Could be good to know since some millions of users are affected... Maybe something for @Brink to put a link to on the front page since it is a stopper for many, including the company I work for.
Hi,
Did the update with updates mini tool and went okay
search and cortana show suspended using nothing maybe they will run amuck later :/
sfc /verifyonly was uneventful.
The updates are kept in the component store (the WinSxS folder). The underlying process that cleans up the component store is actually the windows installer, however you invoke it.
Yes, there are DISM commands to analyse and to clean up the component store. See these tutorials:
Analyze Component Store (WinSxS folder) in Windows 10
Clean Up Component Store (WinSxS folder) in Windows 10
Just now able to get back to this today. I'm currently working on a GPO to uninstall KB4515384 at startup so people can get their printers back hopefully until the issues with this update are fixed by M$. Trying to get that script together and tested out. I've put in 5 plus hours on this over the weekend so I'm pretty sure I'm leaving a half day early sometime this week at least lol. What a cluster.
I updated my Dell, now it runs the "core" process after start up, and the cpu sits at 15-25%. Before the update it ran fine. I'm trying to avoid this update on my Acer, I just installed a brand new Samsung 860 EVO in it, and she runs like a dream, I'd like to keep it that way.
Hmm so i guess the casual CheckHealth/ScanHealth/RestoreHealth doesn't clean it up and one actually has to run something like StartComponentCleanup/ResetBase in order to do so.
It's still unclear though from the link, if there is scheduled maintenance running on Windows 10 by default that cleans it up periodically (it does for Windows 8), do you perhaps know?
I would like to let the system do it for me and not manually do so.
Thanks.
