To simplify what the articles above documents, there is a 2 step
process needed:

First a interactive run where you set up what cleanmgr is supposed
to do and where, and give it a sage number you can refer to later
(38 in my example below) like this:

Cleanmgr.exe /dC: /sageset:38


When you are finished, you can run the cleanup without any user
interaction like this:

Cleanmgr.exe /sagerun:38
