    deleting hard drive files

    Hi,

    May we know what type of file are you trying to delete? Would it be Office documents, media files, or picture files? If you're trying to delete files for free some space on your device. We suggest to perform a Disc Cleanup. Kindly follow the steps below to
    perform the task:

    • Type in Cortana Disc Cleanup
    • Choose the files to delete
    • Click on "Clean up system files"
    • Click on Ok

    For any concerns, don't hesitate to get back to us.

    Regards.

  3. SamSs Service Deleted accidentally

    Hi Richard,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    • What was the last step you performed before deleting it accidently?
    • Check if you find it under Services?
    Follow the steps below to check the SAMSs.

    1. Press
    Windows Logo Key+X. Click on Run.

    2. Type
    services.msc. Click on Ok.

    3. Then find
    SAMSs. Right-click on it to
    Stop it and Restart it.


    If you do not find it in services, then I suggest you to try the steps below.

    Scan for damaged system files. Right-click the Start icon and select
    Command Prompt (Admin). In the Command Prompt window, type
    sfc /scannow and hit Enter.

    Then type dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth and hit Enter.

    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
