    My laptop thinks its storage is full but its not


    Hi,


    I have an Acer Swift Laptop (Model Name: SF315-51G) I have been struggling with the storage management on it for sometime now and am constantly confused. My laptop has 2 storage locations and it tells me its full because the 'This PC (CMy laptop thinks its storage is full but its not :) 119- GB' is completely full however the 'Data (DMy laptop thinks its storage is full but its not :) -931 GB' is completely empty (and obviously has way more room then the first storage place) and now the problem is I can't for the life of me figure out the proper way to move what's in the PC storage over to the Data storage. I have tried my method of clicking and dragging things over and even though they'll move my laptop seems to not know where it is once its been moved. For instance, I'll type the name of something I've moved there into the search engine in the bottom left corner and the software will tell me it doesn't exist on my laptop. plz help, been very frustrated with this for too long now.


    Thankyou in advance to anyone willing to help!

    :)

    Thinking about Going back to Win8.1


    If want to disable IE, still can. However, can't uninstall it like were able to in XP/98/whatever.
    Here's how, although I find it useful in case Chrome or Firefox stops working and have to re-download it. *Wink
    1. Search for turn windows features on or off and click it in the search results.

    2. When the app opens, uncheck Internet Explorer 11.

    3. Click Yes on the warning dialog.

    4. Click OK.

    5. Restart for the changes to finish.
