Windows 10: My computer cannot load the search barthere could be other problems that I couldn't find...

Few days ago, my PC desktop's C drive was running out of space. I found out that the AppData folder was taking a large portion of it. So I decided to make a Symbolic Link so I could store the folder on my D drive. So I first copied the AppData folder to the D drive, then deleted it from the C drive. There was a message that some files could not be moved, so I decided just to delete themit was a stupid decision. However, somehow I kept failed making the Symbolic Link, even though I put the right commands. So I gave up making the link, and put the AppData folder back where it was. But the prob

:)

 

"We couldn`t create a new partition or locate an existing one."

Try this:

Before you get to that message, press SHIFT + F10 to open a command prompt.

Run diskpart.
At the diskpart prompt, run these commands:

list disk

At this point you should see the SSD as disk 0. If it has another disk number, use that number rather than "0" in the next command.

select disk 0
clean
exit (to exit from diskpart)
exit (to exit from the command prompt)





That should clear the contents of the disk. The entire disk space should then show up in Windows setup as "Unallocated Space" as in the screenshot below.
