    Storage showing as double the actual SSD size

    Running Windows 10 Home 20H2 (Build 19042.964) on an AMD based Windows Surface Laptop 4 with 512GB SSD.

    Even though it has a 512GB SDD as confirmed by both disk management and file explorer, settings -> system -> Storage reports the size as 951GB! I have searched but struggling to discover how to get it to report the real size.

    Per the image below it shows
    • 553GB used - bigger than the size of the SDD
      519GB in system & reserved


    games files lose but in programs and features show the actual size of file 331831d1620463824t-storage-showing-double-actual-ssd-size-capture.png


    System and reserved breaks down per this screenshot

    games files lose but in programs and features show the actual size of file 331832d1620464039t-storage-showing-double-actual-ssd-size-capture2.png


    Have tried various options including disk cleanup, SFC and DSIM to get it to report the correct size but to no avail. Any suggestions on how to correct this much appreciated?

    Increase image file upload size cap

    its still a extra step worse still its command line ... the whole point is to spend less time taking fking screenshots and more time posting ...

    Are my Registry Files all legitimate programs?

    Isn't there a web tool whereby I can check if programs listed in my REGISTRY FILES are legitimate programs?
