  1. Folder Name There is not enough space on the disk


    So, I am trying to pin some folders onto Quick Access so I can have quicker access to them. But then Windows 10, being the best product ever sarcasm very much intended, decides to show me this error when I try to do so:Here's why this error is a load of ****.As you can see, there's MORE than enough space on whatever disk the error is talking about.I wish I had RPM 2.0 on my computer so that I could finally shed myself of Windows 10 and move onto Windows 11, assuming that'll change anything about this quite possibly fake error.

    :)

    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:

      Enter.
    • Select Storage and click on Disk Management.
