If you’ve been browsing torrent sites, YouTube tutorials, or sketchy software forums, you’ve likely seen a headline that sounds too good to be true:
dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
This compresses system files using the XPRESS algorithm, reducing Windows size by with zero performance loss.
Even a "Lite" version of Windows 10 (stripped of Edge, Cortana, Defender, and all drivers) still occupies roughly when compressed in ESD format (Microsoft’s own high-compression format).
Even if you got a “lite” version (impossible at 10MB), it wouldn’t receive critical security patches.
