Windows 10 reduces its storage footprint

Windows devices can be lightweight and highly mobile, yet, when you need it, have the full capabilities of the Windows OS. The Windows Storage and Deployment Teams, the people who bring modern storage APIs, Storage Sense, setup, and servicing to your phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop would like to introduce you to how they are giving Windows 10 a compact footprint.Now that Windows runs on all manners of devices - from cheap phones to expensive gaming rigs - Windows' storage footprint is even more important than it already was. I'm glad Microsoft isn't losing sight of these lower-level things while working on Windows 10's user-facing features.That being said, the measures detailed in the blog post look an awful lot like treating the symptoms instead of the actual cause.
