    Disk full even when enough space is available.


    I was downloading something from torrent which was of 45 GB in size. My D drive had 65 GB space left. After downloading 28 GB, torrent reported that my disk is full. Same happened when I tried downloading a game with steam yesterday and even before that. Once I was extracting a large rar fileabout 100GB, it was about 114 GB in size after extraction and I had 170 GB free storage on the partition where I was extracting my content but still winrar reported that I don't have enough space left.Above screenshot was taken through treesize software after the error occured i.e after downloading 28 GB

    :)

    disk space reduced after media creation tool

    Hi Sarah,

    One of the possible reasons why your disk space was reduced is due to an unallocated disk space on your partitions. For us to isolate your concern, we suggest that you check your device's partition. To do this, follow the steps provided below:

    • Type Computer Management on Ask me anything and press
      Enter.
    • Select Storage and click on Disk Management.
    • Send us a screenshot.
    We look forward to your response.

    Disk full even when enough space is available.

    Low Disk space and no storage

    Hi Katie,

    There are times when your Windows PC will let you know that it's low on disk space to prevent information loss. When your PC doesn't have enough disk space, it will affect the performance of your PC. Please answer these questions so we can isolate the cause
    of your concern:

    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • How much disk space is available at this time? Can you provide me a screenshot of the current disk space?
    • What is the current OS Build of your PC? Click the Start button, then type
      winver, and then press Enter to verify this information.

    You can also visit this
    article     on how to free up more drive space to improve the performance of your computer.

    We're looking forward to your reply.
