Windows 10: Quantum Break couldn't install despite of enough disk space

I purchased Quantum Break in store today and I have a problem downloading. It says I don't have enough disk space. But my disk E (my download directory) has enough room to download this game. 42.3GB required but I got 47.3GB free space. I retried thousand times but still not working. Windows Store allows me to download but shuts me down along the way. Plz help me, I really want to play this game.

Loss of disk space despite clean install

@Augi1

You are missing a step, or don't realize you haven't gotten to that step yet.

This is step #10. It has nothing to do with deleting partitions. It simply tells the installation you intend to do a totally clean install.





Read these notes. What I have circled is what you need to do to have one unallocated space on your machine to install to.




Here is the place where you do that. In the example picture, it is already done. In your case, there will be a few partitions with data in them. I do not know exactly how many, but it's not important. Delete them all using the delete function I pointed to. Highlight each partition you see and click delete until all are gone and you have only one unallocated partition on the machine. That is where you will install Windows. If you delete all of the partitions first, it is impossible for you to still have that 454GB partition.





If you're not clear on any part of this, please ask. One of us will explain further.

Loss of disk space despite clean install


I went through the reinstall process but was never given an option to delete partitions. The options shown in step 10 of the tutorial referenced by Fafhrd were never presented. My storage map shows I am again left with 454 GB taken up in "Other" of which 331 GB are in C:\ (Files at drive root). I am very frustrated. What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this? Screen shots of the storage maps are below. Of note, when each file folder is queried for properties, the total does not even come close to 331 GB. What gives?
