    Not enough space on my PC Windows 10


    Hello, I face a very large problem. I needed to reset my PC because it was running slower than I thought it should and couldn't detect a virus so I thought that would be my best option. I proceeded to delete everything on my PC I possibly could without it being unusable. When I finally just barely had enough space to reset it I tried to. I wait at least 3 hours but all it would do was show me the dots spinning but nothing more. I read on her what to do to get to the advanced settings page and so I did. But, finally my question, now it says I need more space to reset it where windows it installed but I can't open it up to go back to my files in anyway I have tried. I'm desperate at this point and really need assistance. Thank you.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
