    Not enough space on Recovery (DD:/ usage space showing wrong :) drive.

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Please help me with the following:

    1. What is the make and model number of your Computer?


    Please note that recovery "D" is a partition on the hard drive which contains the image of the Operating system. You can use it to restore the computer back to factory settings. You should not attempt to store files in it.
    If you have any data saved on the D drive, I would suggest you to move it to an external drive and to free up some space, you can follow the steps provided in the article:
    Free up drive space in Windows 10.



    If you are using a HP computer, then you can refer to this article:
    HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - What is the Recovery (DD:/ usage space showing wrong :) Hard Drive?



    Hope this helps.

    Let us know if you got the help you needed by clicking on Yes or No.

  3. low disk space warning on d drive

    Thank you for the response. I think you are right, I'm not sure I ever saw a D drive listed before. I tried what you advised but I don't have the option to select volume D. I hit remove=d but it says arguments invalid. Am I doing something wrong, any
    other suggestions. Thanks

  4. D:/ usage space showing wrong

    Mismatched Space Usage

    The cause of this is due to the filing system the storage device is formatted in.

    You may try to fix read-only error with the following simple instruction.

    Step 1: Click on your "Start Menu", type cmd in the search bar, then hit "Enter".

    Step 2: Type command diskpart and hit "Enter". A new command line window will open.

    Step 3: Type list disk and hit "Enter". (make sure your devices has been listed out, for example, it is listed as disk 0)

    Step 4: Type the command select disk 0 and hit "Enter". Now you've removed the read-only attribute from the storage devices. Type
    exit and hit "Enter" to leave the DiskPart utility.

    If the suggestion above doesn't work in your case, try to correct Read-Only error by reformatting.

    You can just use a reliable third-party partition reformatting tool like
    MiniTool Partition Wizard
    .

    Be sure to copy any and all file from the drive as all the data on the drive will be erased. This can be a simple task or a long undertaking depending on the size and usage of the storage device, but is a necessary and important step.
