Windows Update History Includes Updates from Windows 10

I recently upgraded from Windows 10 using the Windows 11 Upgrade Assistant. The installation went very well without any apparent problems.

The Windows Update History includes Windows 10 updates going back to 2022. Will those updates be removed at some point? I've read that the large Windows.old folder will be removed at a future date.

Are there any tools available if the older updates remain in the Update History?

Thanks for any help.

Windows.old will be purged 10 days after the date of your successful W11 upgrade.

But WU History won't be cleared, because that data is extracted from historical log data. Eventually newer updates will push the older entries further down from view, but they're not deleted.

If you're really inclined to clear the current history (it's all or nothing), then run these steps in PowerShell as Administrator:

Thanks for the reply. I feel much better knowing that it is normal for the earlier updates to remain in the history.

It is probably better that the updates are not removed since a user could revert to the previous version of Windows.

I have always just used the tutorial batch file.
