  1. Not Enough Space?


    Hello,

    I recently started using a new laptop computer that has Windows 10 on it. But now it is telling me it needs to be updated to a newer version of Windows 10. But when I try to install it, my computer says there isn't enough space on it to install the new version of Windows 10. I cannot even seem to take off anything else and so it says I could get a empty drive and so I bought a 32GB flash drive but it still doesnt do anything when I try to update it.


    On my C Drive it is red and saying: 2.31 free of 28.0GB. I tried doing the Disc Clean-up already but that didn't help. I wanted to try setting it back to Factory Default Settings but it wont even allow me to do that either. I barely even have anything on here. It is an Acer Laptop. And it says Windows 10 Home 2018


    Can someone please help me with this problem?

    :)

    Moving Unallocated Disk Space to End of Disk


    Was commenting on the pic in post #21. Not suggesting anything. It just looked like the step you were doing was incomplete.

    Not Enough Space?

    disk space reduced after media creation tool

    Hi Sarah,

    One of the possible reasons why your disk space was reduced is due to an unallocated disk space on your partitions. For us to isolate your concern, we suggest that you check your device's partition. To do this, follow the steps provided below:

    • Type Computer Management on Ask me anything and press
      Enter.
    • Select Storage and click on Disk Management.
    • Send us a screenshot.
    We look forward to your response.
