Hi, is there limit file size of folder in windows 10 desktop..? I temporarily transferred a 40gb folder in desktop to transfer to another storage.. But once I clicked the folder's properties it only shows 9+gb, but all the files are still there.. and tried to copy that folder from desktop to my documents still it shows 9+gb.. I already format to a fresh windows 10 then tried the transfer process again, but still same issue.. Thanks in advance..

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Transferring files to another folder. Speed issue.

There's various reasons, the more files, the slower the transfer as each has to be initiated and completed, so if you had a few large ISO's or ZIP files, that would go faster. Many files and folders will slow down.

There's chipset limitations, hard drive limitations, OS limitations, other hardware limitations that can slow you down. Though 15MB/s seems kinda slow depending on the file(s) being transferred. Mine usually jumps around but averages in the 80MB/s-range between drives on the same system or on my home network. Though I prefer to do large single-file transfers as they are much faster in my experience.

 

USB Transfer to Laptop

Hello Judy,

I suggest you to copy all the files to a flash drive from the laptop.
You may create a new folder on your desktop and name that folder as per your choice.

• 
  Perform the steps to transfer the files from laptop to desktop.
  
• 
  Plug in the flash drive and wait for it to get detected.
  
• 
  Now, open the flash drive and Right Click on the files that you want to transfer and select “Copy”.
  
• 
  Now, open the folder on desktop and Right Click on an empty space in the folder and select “Paste”.
  
• 
  Similarly, you can transfer all other files.
  

As per the file size you can also use an external drive instead of a flash drive and transfer the data.
