Reserved Storage in Windows 10

So... which registry update is needed to get rid of that? Wouldn't some file use up that space? ShippedWithReserves was set to 1, so I set it to 0, rebooted and OS drive space usage did not change...

 

I don't know if its the update that fixes the issue after the registry tweak, but the OS allowed me to rebase after that tweak and I got 1GB of space back.

This should have nothing to do with resetbase, online resetbase will always work, mostly first a reboot is needed when a feature is added before.

 

set the registry key then reboot then

Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /SPSuperseded
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

should clear out all that reserved space (did on my fresh install)

 

Did the regkey, rebooted and performed the proposed commands:

Don't these 2 commands perform the exact same task (/resetbase is disabled by default and then it only performs /startcomponentcleanup without /resetbase)?

Code:

Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
&
Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

 

worked for me

Code:

Hi,
Tested this. Didn't work.

 

Hi !

what about your version ?

18362.30 or 18362.116

and did you upgrade from an older version or clean install ?

 

Hi,
Clean 18362.30. If I install a clean 1809, apply the 'ShippedWithReserves 0' reg tweak, reboot and then upgrade to 1903 via website (upgrade assistant), the reserved storage will not be applied.

 

Why bother with 1809 at all? Just clean install 18362.30, apply the registry tweak and update via WU and Reserved Storage will be history.

I got trouble after i do that. I'm clean install 1903.30, and use the reserved storage tweak, reboot and the windows can't update anymore

My own testing and observation tells me that only...

"ShippedWithReserves"=dword:00000000

Is needed to disable the System Reserve. The rest of that appears to be unnecessary.

 

But it has been talked many times that if you upgrade, this is not the problem. This reserve will appear when you make a clean installation.
If You upgrade, Your previous settings will stay as they were before upgrading. There is also notice before upgrading save Your files and settings...
But I don't see any problem with this 7GB. This is a so small size even when compared to used by the restore point or what is used by shadow copy. And no one protests about it.

 

No one protests, because there is possibility to switch off restore point, if you want.

 

I did the reg tweak

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ReserveManager]
"BaseHardReserveSize"=hex(b):01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"BaseSoftReserveSize"=hex(b):01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"MinDiskSize"=hex(b):01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"HardReserveAdjustment"=hex(b):01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"ShippedWithReserves"=dword:00000001
"PassedPolicy"=dword:00000001
"TiAttemptedInitialization"=dword:00000001

open cmd with admin run those cmds
1)
cd C:\Windows\servicing\Packages
2)
dism /online /add-package /packpath:Containers-ApplicationGuard-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.18362.418.mum

reboot
open cmd again with admin run this:
dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /resetbase

Space cleared
