Disk space saving on older operating systems

Last updated on March 30th, 2023 at 05:15 pm

You may have seen our previous post on using DISM to clear space on a Windows computer. This is great, but what if you are using an older operating system, something like Windows Server 2003 which does not have the option to use DISM?

Well, there is another little tool within these older operating systems called compcln.exe which you can run in an elevated command prompt and this will carry out the same clean up as DISM in newer versions of Windows.
