    hi so recently ive been losing a tremendous amount of storage on my windows 10 computer theres a few culprits that i suspect like a few weeks ago i had 200 gigabytes and im very concerned, i try to be very careful of my storage. not much has changed on my computer since ive lost so much. i had recently recoreded a video on my computer which took around 28 gigabytes at that time i also downloaded a fortnite update that was 900 megabytes and together that put me at 158which i just suspected that it was just the video then i deleted the video which put me at 128 gigabytes! which i just though it

    "You've reached the storage limit on your phone. Go free...." How?

    Just got a HTC Surround from ATT. Signed in to xbox live app, tried to do something and says" You've reached your storage limit." There is no place to go manage storage or delete anything. I get a similar message in other apps.

    Any suggestions on how to do this?

    Thanks,
