Windows 10 media creation tool tells “need 8GB free disk space”

Hi - the Windows 10 media creation tool tells me I need 8GB of disk space but I have a 64GB USB drive it does not seem to see. Any suggestions? I am trying to install on ASUS Eeebook X205TA with 7GB free on the machine.

Thanks

Windows 10 media creation tool tells “need 8GB free disk space”

Hi Robert,

With the issue description, I understand that while upgrading to Windows 10 the media creation tool gives a message saying “need 8GB disk space” on your Windows machine. I will certainly help you with the query.

I would appreciate if you could help me with more information:

Which operating system is currently installed on your computer?

I would like to inform you that you need 8GB free space on your computer hard drive.

If the current operating system installed on your machine is Windows 7 then, I would suggest you to perform Disk Clean Up
and check if that helps:

Disk Cleanup is performed to remove temporary files from the computer. To do so, please follow the steps below:

The following procedure cleans up files associated with your user account. You can also use Disk Cleanup to clean up all the files on your computer.

1. Open Disk Cleanup by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type
Disk Cleanup, and then, in the list of results, click
Disk Cleanup.

2. In the Drives list, click the hard disk drive that you want to clean up, and then click
OK.

3. In the Disk Cleanup dialog box, on the
Disk Cleanup tab, select the check boxes for the file types that you want to delete, and then click
OK.

4. In the message that appears, click Delete files.



Important: While performing chkdsk on the hard drive if any bad sectors are found on the hard drive when chkdsk tries to repair that sector if any data available on that might be lost

Hope this information helps. Please let us know if you need any other assistance with Windows in future. We will be happy to assist you.

 

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.
