Disk Cleanup

My C: drive is a bit crowded so I used “Disk Cleanup” to get rid of the junk.  But I notice that “Temporary Files” does not cleanup.  It has ~20GB of stuff to cleanup and after the cleanup it still has ~20GB.  It’s checked so it should cleanup.  Why is it not deleting the temporary files?

Likely your Downloads folder…

Settings > System > Storage.

Click on Temporary files to choose which temporary files to remove.
