  1. Microsoft store FORCING C: Drive?


    Trying to download Halo MCC for PC off the Microsoft store.


    It's forcing me to use C: drive even though there's not enough space.


    When I try to switch to another Drive it doesn't work.


    tried to go into settings>storage>change where apps download.


    Doesn't work.

    :)

    Unallocated Space to C Drive

    Hi Travis,

    It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

    • In Disk Management, right-click on (CMicrosoft store FORCING C: Drive? :) which appears next to the
      Unallocated partition.
    • Select Extend.

    Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

    Regards.
