I recently installed the 40th Anniversary update on my PC on one of my SSD HDD’s. Before I did so, I had 80+ GB free. After installing this update, it dropped to 40+ GB free according to File Explorer and the color of the drive when viewed on the “This PC” tab went from being Blue to Red. I checked …
