  1. Conflicting Storage Information


    My cloud storage keeps saying that there's not enough storage so it's not saving my files properly but when I go to the OneDrive site, it says I've only used 0.1 GB of 2 TB or roughly 1% of my storage but it's acting like I've used up all of it.

    Conflicting information on my Storage Space...

    From disk management, it does report the same storage and used space as from explorer.
    May I ask did you try to create a storage pool or something ? if so, you should not mess with this.

    Is this disk an external disk connected via USB ? WD or Seagate branch ?

    I have the feeling that this disk is formatted with GPT type using 512K emulation so Windows get confused. To verify:


    1. Right click on Disk 6 ->Properties->Volumes. What does it show on partition styles ? GPT ?
    2. Download Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition Free, install then run. What does it show on disk 7 ? MBR ?

    If step 1 shows GPT and step 2 shows MBR then definitely the disk was formatted using 512K emulation. The reason they did this so that it would be recognized by WinXP or if you connect it to a TV.

    Windows Updates failed is another problem you have. First, it tried to updates from 1703 -> 1709 and failed so any subsequent updates to 1803 also failed.

    Based on all the screen shots. Disk Management, Disk Properties and Partition Wizard: The used and unused space are consistent. Your disk is configured as GPT disk correctly.
    Apparently, you did create a pool in the past. Here's my screen shot of Storage spaces:

    Follow this link to remove this disk from the pool:

    The correct way to find out the usage of each disk in your PC is: Settings->System->Storage:

    Weird.
    If the machine is running 1703, why did an update for 1709 (and a Flash update) succeed? *Confused
