    Laptop using up ~60GB storage- no idea where!


    Hi all,Hope everyone's had a good weekend!I have a slight problem with my laptop- it's meant to have 117GB of storage in Windows C: which is fantastic. My only issue is- my documents, temporary files, and other files take up ~40GB and my storage has my 'Apps & Features' down as using 52.9GB, yet when I look at the list of files I can only see approx 20GB or less worth of apps. I've deleted all of my temporary files, done a malware check, and deleted any extra games etc that were hanging round on my laptop, and I still have only managed to get 6.5GB of free space! I realise windows etc need

  2. Laptop with broken screen How much?

    I would like suggestions and look in local stores. I dont wanna buy a laptop from someone online. Sorry. But could be a good idea if you asked him about the performance on older games. Gonna make a list ofall laptops people suggest me.

    Remove the screen for space purpose here its small desk and if the screen is opened it will hide my 22 inches lcd

  4. Laptop using up ~60GB storage- no idea where!

    I'm online from my wifi laptop but can't connect to my home network

    Nope, I've tried all the steps of all the fixes listed by Dalchina and Try3 but the problem still exists. The W10 laptop refuses to access my main W7 pc (named CG16) on my home network, although it can 'see' it, ie, it shows CG16 in the network list.
    The only thing I haven't tried is Dalchina's suggestion about creating a shortcut, mainly because I'm not sure where this shortcut is supposed to be. I'm assuming it has to be on the W10 laptop but I don't understand how it could work. More info please, Dalchina, if you'd be so kind.

    Daymin, sorry: I have no idea what you're trying to say.
