Windows 10 / 11 post WU installation cleanup script


Hey, folks,

Thanks to a lot of wonderful folks here, we've made mention in a previous Insider topic about cleanup steps that can be run after Windows Update performs a major version install.

Though these have been mentioned before by many, many people, it was this post by @IanMosley that started me on implementing this as an step to clean up both my main Windows installation and all the VMs I have for testing:


A few posts later, @geneo offered some good advice on how to streamline that set of commands in this post:


Which, eventually, led me to mentioning that I had put them all in a batch file to run after major WU installs:


Thus far I've just been right clicking the file and selecting Run as Administrator to run it - not all that hard. But, today, I went in search of a self-elevation script for batch files so I can just double click the file and let it do its thing.

I found a good thread at Stack Overflow that has a few methods mentioned, including direct self-elevation, elevation via WSH, via VBScripting, and even via Powershell. I tested several ones, and found that this particular script works best and is no nonsense and has no fuss:


I've also added a pause command at the end so that the window remains on screen after completing so you can see the results, and a simple keypress will close it out.

So, here is the code as I'm using it now:

Batch:
:: Elevation script from StackOverflow
:: https://stackoverflow.com/a/28467343

:: Begin Elevation script

@ECHO OFF
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion

::net file to test privileges, 1>NUL redirects output, 2>NUL redirects errors
NET FILE 1>NUL 2>NUL
if '%errorlevel%' == '0' ( goto START ) else ( goto getPrivileges )

:getPrivileges
if '%1'=='ELEV' ( goto START )

set "batchPath=%~f0"
set "batchArgs=ELEV"

::Add quotes to the batch path, if needed
set "script=%0"
set script=%script:"=%
IF '%0'=='!script!' ( GOTO PathQuotesDone )
    set "batchPath=""%batchPath%"""
:PathQuotesDone

::Add quotes to the arguments, if needed.
:ArgLoop
IF '%1'=='' ( GOTO EndArgLoop ) else ( GOTO AddArg )
    :AddArg
    set "arg=%1"
    set arg=%arg:"=%
    IF '%1'=='!arg!' ( GOTO NoQuotes )
        set "batchArgs=%batchArgs% "%1""
        GOTO QuotesDone
        :NoQuotes
        set "batchArgs=%batchArgs% %1"
    :QuotesDone
    shift
    GOTO ArgLoop
:EndArgLoop

::Create and run the vb script to elevate the batch file
ECHO Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) > "%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
ECHO UAC.ShellExecute "cmd", "/c ""!batchPath! !batchArgs!""", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
"%temp%\OEgetPrivileges.vbs"
exit /B

:START
::Remove the elevation tag and set the correct working directory
IF '%1'=='ELEV' ( shift /1 )
cd /d %~dp0

::Do your adminy thing here...

:: End Elevation Script
:: Begin cleanup script

start /B /wait rundll32.exe pnpclean.dll,RunDLL_PnpClean /drivers/maxclean
start /B /wait dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
start /B /wait sfc /scannow
start /B /wait dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
start /B /wait dism /online /Cleanup-Image /Startcomponentcleanup /resetbase

pause

You can copy the contents and save it to a file with a .BAT extension and it should work just fine, tested across Windows 10 and Windows 10 Insider Preview, plus Windows 11 (RTM, Release Preview, Beta, Dev and Canary current builds).

If you'd rather just download the batch file, here you go.

Download

Enjoy!

P.S. - if you have any suggestions on improving it / adding more functionality / expanding the scope of the cleanup, feel free to comment below!

Thanks for this one @johnlgalt 😎

I copied it, saved as .bat, ran it and all completed successfully!!!

Much easier and quicker than doing them one by one 😎 Gonna use this from now on after Updates to my system and VMs 😊

Lol!

One of the scripts at that same SO thread actually was an enhanced version of the one I implemented, that allowed for parameter passing if you need to, and makes allowances for logging (diverting STDOUT to file, basically).

I didn't have the patience for that just yet, as I'd need to set it up so the operator passed the parameters on where to store the output, because I just can't write a batch file that uses a default location (like wherever the batch file is stored) as the path for logs.

That is one of my planned improvements for a v2 (actually v3, I guess, since just the basic commands in the batch was v1).

Odd as hell. The file is attached to the post. And there is no 'insert' button like appears on images.

I'm obviously missing something lol...

EDIT - Brink added the linked file to a download button. Thanks, Brink!

I tried it again in that post, and it worked. I did it exactly the same way with the OP, and the file is there, but ... 🤷‍♂️

    …still on a horse.
Nope. I ran it on my Desktop PC right after I installed the last major build (22621.2428, I think?). It runs across Windows 10 and 11, Insiders and RTM builds.

If you check out geneo's comments in the second link, he mentions doing at least one of the commands before you make a system image backup, too.

Oops - he makes use of a different command than the ones in the script up above for pre-backup prep.

Interesting.

I suppose a simple menu like used in the UUPDUMP scripts could also be used directly in the batch without invoking PS, for those who don't want to invoke PS.

Good idea, I like it!

I had posted my problem with Windows update KB5032190 failing and causing corruption. My posts are lost behind many posts about CoPilot and Edge issues so thought I would post here to tell you I did try your Batch File (after restoring the laptop with Macrium, running Restore Health, SFC and StartComponent Cleanup). Because in the original failure of KB5032190, I did get a message that "A safeguard hold is currently in place on your device". I downloaded the 22H2 ISO 22612.2715 from UUP Dump and it installed properly. I guess I just have to wait for 23H2 Features, but that doesn't matter.
I wanted to ask you what your Batch File does beyond running Restore Health, SFC and StartComponent Cleanup or is it just faster (as I noted).
Thank you for your help on my previous posts.

I had posted my problem with Windows update KB5032190 failing and causing corruption. My posts are lost behind many posts about CoPilot and Edge issues so thought I would post here to tell you I did try your Batch File (after restoring the laptop with Macrium, running Restore Health, SFC and StartComponent Cleanup). Because in the original failure of KB5032190, I did get a message that "A safeguard hold is currently in place on your device". I downloaded the 22H2 ISO 22612.2715 from UUP Dump and it installed properly. I guess I just have to wait for 23H2 Features, but that doesn't matter.
I wanted to ask you what your Batch File does beyond running Restore Health, SFC and StartComponent Cleanup or is it just faster (as I noted).
Thank you for your help on my previous posts.
If you don't want to wait for the 23H2 update, you can always use @Brink 23H2 enablement package from his tutorial below to update it to 23H2:

"A safeguard hold is currently in place on your device"

I've never encountered that message before, to my recollection. Something new to learn about....

Nice! Thank you very much.
I have two doubts, could you help me with?
1- What this command does? "rundll32.exe pnpclean.dll,RunDLL_PnpClean /drivers/maxclean"
2- I know that "/Startcomponentcleanup" removes old packages that are no longer necessary, but what is "/resetbase" for?

Thank you!
