    You know that there are a lot of users with growing WinSxS folders (How to reduce the size of winsxs in windows 7 ultimate x64).

    In Windows 8 MS made a huge improvement which I've requested over years. You can now use DISM.exe and the Disc cleanup UI to remove updates which are replaced by newer ones (like newer IE updates). I've explained it here:

    http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/153742-dism-improvements-in-windows-8/page__st__60__p__1015509#entry1015509

    This saves you much space over the time!

    When I run the code in cmd with admin rights, I get this error:

    DISM failed. No operation was performed. For more information review the log file. It says:

    When I run the code in cmd with admin rights, I get this error:

    DISM failed. No operation was performed. For more information review the log file. It says:

    The error 0x800F0806 = CBS_E_PENDING

    When can we expect this component to be included in Windows 7 ? Constant updates and hotfixes bloats the winsxs folder to sizes that no SSD disk can support!
