Microsoft released the Windows 11 autumn update at the beginning of October. However, a bug has crept in. The installation creates an almost nine gigabyte cache file that cannot be deleted.
As someone working in the Microsoft ecosystem at an MSP, we seriously wonder what the fuck goes on over there. We’re supposed to defend everything y’all do which is getting really hard to justify without sounding like idiots.
I hope you’re having an amazing day! I am a windows fan and user, just like YOU! I will do my very best to help you solve your issue. I know you have had a bad experience and it must have been very hard for you. But rest assured, i will help you to the BEST of my ability!
And then try DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth and DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth that’ll get rid of the 9GB file for sure. If not, reinstall everything again and again and again.
It should fix system files that are not in expected state (I assume corruption, missing, wrong permissions etc.). Maybe it was more useful in the past, but after trying it couple times around 8 years ago and never seeing any benefit, I have never thought of using it since.
My colleague said it fixed some random issue once or twice after he was out of ideas.
If system is truly messed up, it’s often faster and more reliable to just reinstall it, especially if you do not have much custom config.
Not everyone has the luxury of choosing where they work. People need to eat. Are some people complacent? Sure. But that doesnt mean every person working at Microsoft is a horrible person.
What is wrong with you that makes you think this is an appropriate response to “I am planning a suicide”? As somebody who has stared down the business end of a 12 gauge solution, you’re frankly despicable.
Because, judging by the number of upvotes, it’s supposed to be sarcasm all the way down the comment chain. That is, until you arrived, which makes sense why no one invites you to parties.
This makes no logical sense lol. OP says he’s going to commit suicide, his comment gets upvotes, therefore his comment is sarcasm?? Right or wrong this is just an awful way to decide. How others react to something isn’t indicative of that thing’s original intent… That should be pretty obvious.
Because, given the preposterous tone of the original comment, which provides zero evidence of any truth, we all used our individual deduction that it was posted in jest as sarcasm. That is, until you came along and made it evident that a small minority of people here including yourself are “Debbie Downers” and should be avoided in public.
Hi. Microsoft employee here. That’s happening because we don’t give a shit and we are being replaced by folks from India

Hey there. Learn how to stop carrying. A job doesn’t define who you are and you’re at least free to be anyone outside the working hours.
I learned to be a cog in this inhumane machine in exchange for a paycheck
As former MSFT employee who just got replaced by India… I’m kind of relieved I’m gone. Working for them felt like working for the bad guys
What did you expect? That corps would solve climate change or what?
The pigs on the very top are secured and that’s enough
Won’t someone please think of the investors…!
If you dive into who owns Microsoft, you’d be very surprised
Don’t leave us hanging.

Please try running the troubleshooter.
(troubleshooter doesn’t fix anything)
Try reinstalling windows. Goodbye!
And then they fuck off and stop reponding.
This is every forum response on MS forums, it’s infuriating.
“I have super specific error code with super specific driver that was changed with super specific windows update.”
“Me too!”
“Same, here’s some more info from event viewer”
“Maybe try uninstalling the device”
“Uninstall my WiFi card?”
“Hi I’m bob from Microsoft you should run sfc scan now and that will fix it”
“That didn’t fix it”
“Ok here’s how to reinstall windows”
Also try SFC /scannow
And then try
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /ScanhealthandDISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealththat’ll get rid of the 9GB file for sure. If not, reinstall everything again and again and again.Does it fix anything btw? I’m just wondering how it does work after all

If I remember correctly, it scans system files and replaces broken/corrupted ones. It can work on some issues, but it’s not a fix all thing.
Hope you can live with yourself,
you professional spreader of spy-ware.

No, I can’t. I’m planning a suicide
In the event this is a legitimate admission of intent, here mate. I hope you can find peace for your troubled mind.

Thanks mate, I’m not American and although I have money, I can’t get to a psychiatrist.
Don’t worry, it’s not emotional.
Wishing you the best of luck regardless, mate. You aren’t alone in this.
Can you please convince some of your A-suite execs to join you?
