![]() Long-term it’s probably cheaper to buy devices with larger drives than have to depot them to get users upgraded or take other tactics. Emptying downloads, trash, and other directories isn’t always possible (the number of people who use those as actual storage is astounding), as is clearing duplicate profiles in Outlook and other apps. ![]() Find and wipe away cache or temporary files and automatically empty your Trash folder. Given that drives can be a terabyte in size, this doesn’t seem wildly inappropriate however, many organizations still buy devices with 256GB drives (thus going from an eighth in the 64GB drive era to a quarter of common drive space required to be free for certain upgrades on smaller drives today). Save extra space by finding and removing unwanted system junk. Therefore, scoping policies to run an updater without causing undo issues to end users it’s entirely appropriate to make sure they have the amounts of free space indicated per version. The net result is that when doing the last few upgrades, they have required 12+GB for the installer itself (which can be run from a USB drive) and up to 44GB for the installer to do the work it needs to do, so a total of up to about 56GB. So the installers haven’t changed all that much.
