can't remove windows 7 update files

I'm trying to free-up space on my windows 7 OS drive. I've install all windows updates to-date and the Windows folder has almost doubled in size. I've read some articles on how to remove unneeded windows update files via disk cleanup.



When I do a disk cleanup it says I have barely any windows update files to remove:

How can I remove all these unneeded files?
