Cleanup Windows winsxs folder...

Recently noticed my Windows 7 C: Drive is almost getting full and found that the folder WINSXS under C:\Windows\ is more than 10GB !!! Its Microsoft Service Pack data that is not being removed after installation is completed. Well, for a reason of-course to un-install later if you decided... In my case, I dont think i will be uninstalling service packs. So, need to clean it up.

Run the following in DOS window it should get you back at least 5GB!!!

DISM /online /Cleanup-Image /SpSuperseded
