    Can't move files because the file there are already in doesn't have enough space


    So I am trying to move a set of video files from my C: drive to a recently installed 1tb HDD. I have already managed to move some videos, however now whenever I try to move more I get a message telling me the they can't be moved because there isn't enough space in the folder they are already inFor example:Moving videos from C:\Users\myname\OneDrive\Documents\Videos\Video Folder Name 1 to E:\Videos\Video Folder Name 2I get a warning telling me "There is not enough space on Video Folder Name 1. You need an additional 722mb to copy these filesThe whole reason I am shifting things around is becaus

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    Thanks for your answer, ken!
    I deleted all my data. I had have it backed up.

    I did a clean installation using the windows media creation tool (usb option).

    No, I didn`t. I thought a clean installation would solve the problem.

    After posting my previous message, I did it.

    After chkdsk, I close cmd and tried to boot and the laptop just turned it off. This morning I`ve restarted it and automatically windows did a repair. Windows has booted and it seems that the repair tool has removed chrome and acrobat pdf reader (the only two programs I had installed after reinstalling windows).

    Now Windows is installing updates and restarting my lapop, I`m kind of frightened. I don`t want it to happen again. Anyhow, I want to know what has brought the issue

    I`ve been looking for information about the error code at the end of the picture and I didn`t get anywhere.
