  1. I have less free storage than I'm supposed to have


    So when I try and look at all the files that are in my Local Disk D: they only take up around 300gb out of 930gb, but I still somehow only have 30gb free. I'm aware of shadow files and I tried the method of going into System protection and then Configure etc... but that didn't help me whatsoever because I don't think I had them on my D disk anyway. So now my question is does someone know how I can delete the files that are taking 600gb worth of space and if I can, should I, or can I at least somehow see them? Please help...

    :)

  2. Pentium M

    Not sure what I'm looking at. Though when I do go to Options and then CPU it lists my CPU
    as Intel Pentium M processor 1.73 GHz, and then under that it lists speed: 799.9 MHz
    and then features and cache size.I ran the benchmark test and don't understand all
    those numbers, but while testing I checked CPUZ and it still says it is running at 800 MHz.

    Hi George,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.


    • Did you make any changes in BIOS?

    • Are you getting any error message?
    I suggest you to update Storage controller drivers and check if it helps.

    Steps 1:


    • Press Windows key + X.

    • Select Device manager.

    • Expand Storage controller.

    • Right click on the driver and Update the drivers.


    Steps 2: Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue
    is with device. Refer these steps:


    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.

    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.

    • Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.

    • Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.


    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help

    in Windows 10 Network and Sharing
    I'm supposed to have 5 GB storage in OneDrive. Actually have 2,84.: I decided to try and properly use Microsoft's OneDrive today. From the looks of it, I have 5 GB of space according to onedrive.live.com. HOWEVER, in Windows 10, I only have 2,84 GB available before Windows says it is "full". What is going on here?...
