    Microsoft Store will not open/ storage space gone


    Help - after last update Microsoft Store will not open and troubleshoot for it will not work.

    Also, Storage space all gone - no matter what I do, disk clean up, delete temp, empty trash etc. doesn't free up any storage.

    :)

    Microsoft storage space device?

    Hi Misa

    Please Note the following process will remove you drive form storage spaces, it will also wipe that drive back to Unallocated Space

    Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu)

    Go to System - Storage

    Click 'Manage Storage Spaces'

    Click 'Change Settings' and if necessary, confirm that choice

    On that drive, click 'Prepare for Removal'

    That drive will be listed as 'Preparing for removal'

    Wait until that drive is listed as ' Ready to remove', Click Remove - Remove Drive

    Then open Disk Management (accessible by right clicking your Start Button

    Right clcik the Unallocated space on that drive and choose 'New - Simple Volume' then accept the defaults

    You will then have a full clean drive ready to use . . .

    LA lawyer files suit against Microsoft over Surface storage capacity

    Sure, but the example I like to use for this is cars...a trunk has X-number of cubic feet of storage space. If a seat occupies that space, something that is crucial to the operation of the car(while carrying passengers), then the space the seat occupies is not listed. Only open space is. Or, if it's folding seat, they list it, but have to also lsit that there is a caveat there.

    You rent a 400 cubic foot storage locker, rated for 400 cubic feet of storage, you get 400 cubic feet of OPEN space.

    You buy a PC with a 500GB HDD, you get far less than that for storage space.

    See, PC's aren't listed as having "STORAGE SPACE", they are listed as having such and such space on their HDD, or SSD.

    That is how MS screwed up.

    Problem with Storage Space

    Funny...on actually reading the title on that unrecognized status disk, it is titled Microsoft Storage Space. I was ust surprised to see it listed in the drive list.
