  2. F drive space.

    I am receiving a warning that my F drive is low on available space. I am using a 64GB flash drive, but my system shows the F drive only has 450MB of space with 414MB of space used. How can I get the system to show the 64GB of space on the F drive?

  3. Local Drive space

    After the automatic update on May 27 (1803) received a message stating that my Local Drive ("H" in my case) is nearly out of space. Is there any way to allot more space to the drive without wiping out all the data with a reformat?
