    Disk storage keeps filling up


    Hello, I have recently used Onedrive to clear space on my PC. All of my photos were uploaded but I've noticed that they keep reappearing and therefore filling up my storage. I have notifications stating that Amazon photos is downloading from Onedrive so it seems that as I send the photos into the cloud, they are brought back down again.


    I use onedrive and amazon photos for back up - do the two work against each other?


    How can I keep photos in the cloud and therefore preserve space on my PC?

    :)

    SSD storage keeps filling up on its own

    Hi Ash,

    There's a possibility that the files are just hidden. As an initial troubleshooting, we suggest following the steps below on how to display hidden files that's eating space of your SSD:

    • On the Search bar, type folder, and then select
      Show hidden files and folders from the search results.
    • Under Advanced settings, select Show hidden files, folders, and drives,
      and then select OK.

    Keep us in the loop with the result.

    SSD storage keeps filling up on its own

    I don't have any games or anything larger than 5GB installed on my SSD but for some reason all of my storage keeps getting used up and I don't know by what I cant empty any space either. When I try to do a computer reset and choose the option to only clean
    the drive with windows installed on it (SSD) it stays at 1% and then says that rest failed I don't know what is going on. I am running on windows 10 and another thing i've tried is to use disk cleanup but the storage keeps filling up again on my solid state.

    Storage keeps filling up for no reason

    This is a real problem I am having - Whenever I have about 210 MB left on my hard disk, the storage just fills itself up to like 16.9 MB. I did not save anything or download anything that time. Can someone help?
