Windows 10: Apps and features storage discrepancy

When I look at my storage space in settings, it says apps and features take up 64.5 gb. However, when I go into the control panel and look at the list of installed programs and features there, it says they only total to 1.45 gb. Anyone know what's causing this discrepancy? What's with that extra 63 gb I'm shown in settings?

Windows 10 Storage Discrepancy

I have Windows 10 Home Premium with the April 2018 update installed on and Acer Aspire tablet.he

I have noticed and odd discrepancy in the reported used and free space between the C drive properties and the Windows 10 Storage app in Settings.

The afforementioned C drive properties reports the C drive as having 21GB of used space and 7.41GB of free space.

The Windows Storage app in settings is reporting slightly differently with 21.7GB used and 7.38GB free

I also have a Micro SD card mounted which does not appear to show any discrepancy in the reported storage space.





Any ideas for the discrepancy?

Regards,

Barney

 

Curious Browser app discrepancies after upgrading to Win10

After doing an in-place upgrade from Win7 to Win10, I'm seeing some curious discrepancies within the Win10 Settings\Apps areas:

Win10's Settings\Apps & features, lists just two browsers:
- one Mozilla Firefox app.
- one Microsoft Edge app.
And Win10's Settings\Default Apps, correctly lists Firefox as my default web browser.

However,
Win10's Settings\Default Apps\Set defaults by app, shows:
- one Microsoft Edge icon (that's ok)
- two Firefox icons. (Why are there two Firefox icons?)
- one Internet Explorer icon. (Why do I see an Internet Explorer icon, if Internet Explorer does not show up as an installed app? When I upgraded, didn't Microsoft Edge replace Internet Explorer?)

Many thanks in advance,

Winver 1903, Build 18362.418
Firefox 70.0.1 (64-bit)

 

new features 'completed' no details given: sd storage of apps and storage clean up

For example:

http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/f...racking_code=41f021c2f1ea44753096691f01539f29

these two topics requesting sd storage for apps and some way to clean up phone storage have been closed as completed. But the copied and pasted template answer doesn't tell us how!!!

many of us have already searched for an answer and found nothing. There is no way to do what they say they have done for us!!!

so its seems Microsoft not only ignore their 'support forum' but also 'complete' tasks without doing so just to meet some stats somewhere.

if Microsoft actually read this my suggestion is a link at least to a 'how to use this new feature' when you close a suggestion.

in the very least explain what was done to complete these two
