    Not much space at all


    My parents surprised me with a Windows 11 laptop and I was really excited. But I have a problem with it. Not even after a day of having it and not downloading anything, I had only 20 GB left and its now 14 GB Its a 64 GB Laptop. I've gotten rid of games that took up space but it hasn't made a difference. Is this a problem or is it the C++ things?

    :)

    space in hard dist for update windows 10

    Hello ManolisTsitkanos,

    To better assist you with your concern, I'd like to know the following:

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    • Click OK.
    • What is the make and model of your computer?
    • What is the exact error message that you're getting when performing an update?

    Meanwhile, I'd suggest following the steps in this article
    to help you free up drive space on your Windows 10 device.

    Looking forward to your response.

    Regards.

    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.

    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.
