  2. [Q] How to delete camera roll all at once in Windows 10 Mobile?

    Microsoft really leave a big black hole at managing OneDrive space vs. local phone storage. I'm losing hours trying to find out how to free local space WITHOUT losing my photo's on OneDrive. I've ended up deleting photos from OneDrive, including deleting
    them from the Recycle Bin on OneDrive. The photos finally disappear from my phone, but free storage space isn't going up. The storage setting for photos is This Device. I need to clear space on my device for the system update. Please help.

  3. Do I have to pay after 1 year use window 10?

    No, if you have Windows 7 or 8.1 today, the update to 10 will be free forever (as long as you claim it within the first year). After you get it, its yours forever, for free,

  7. sorted , don't use it very often but better to keep it at 15gb than let it drop to 5gb, its not like it costs you anything to keep it at 15gb, just a few key presses .
    seems silly not too.
    thanks
