The installation size of Feature on Demand packages captured here are approximate
and may vary between releases. Installation sizes will also vary if Reserved Storage is
enabled. Reserved Storage is enabled by default on most client versions of Windows 10,

accounts for growth in the Reserved Storage size to ensure there is enough disk space
for all installed Feature on Demand packages to be preserved during updates.
