Automatically Deleting Windows.Old

[FN-GM]

Hello,

 

Around 21 days ago we upgraded most of our fleet to Windows 10 2004.

 

This link says the Windows.Old folder should automatically delete after 10 days.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/delete-your-previous-version-of-windows-f8b26680-e083-c710-b757-7567d69dbb74

 

It hasn't done.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions please? I have had a look online but everything I found is pointing at us to delete it manually in the settings app. Not ideal.

 

Thanks

Is Storage Sense disabled?

Something like:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches\Previous Installations" /v "StateFlags0064" /t REG_DWORD /d 00000002 /f
CLEANMGR /sagerun:64

I’ve always found this to be a bit flakey. After upgrades I used to just run a script that deleted it.
