The growing size comes from multiple sources beyond just extra bloat. Windows 10 demands about 20 gigabytes, and even with minor kernel expansions, it can't justify more than three times that amount. Additional factors include the presence of numerous malware programs like contrana, solitare, and mixed reality tools, which contribute significantly to the overall footprint.

Actually MS mentioned it occupies roughly the same amount as a 10GB drive. Probably to prevent them from installing large 32GB storage options in laptops. Let's be real, with 20GB you won't make much progress. My Windows setup already consumes around 40GB just for drivers and some essential apps like Chrome, Office, and Spotify. It's a plus so they push manufacturers to allocate more space.
