    Storage not working properly


    I have installed an M.2 drive recently and it worked fine in the beginning. Recently I had a problem of it not being recognized and I reinstalled Windows. Both my new M.2 and my old hard drive do not seem to work properly anymore.The M.2 is supposed to have 331 GB of free space and the HardDrive is supposed to have 980GB. However, when I tried to move a large folder to either I got an error, saying there is not enough space. See screenshots.

    :)

    Storage Sense not working properly

    Hi SamSan7,

    Corrupted system files is one of the possible reasons why the Storage Sense feature is not working on your Windows 10 computers. For us to assist you better, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • Which version and OS build number of Windows 10 is currently installed? To check, press the Windows key, type winver, and press the Enter key.
    • Do you have a third-party security software installed?

    Meanwhile, I would suggest that you try to run the System File Checker tool and the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool to scan and correct any issues. System File Checker (SFC) is a built-in tool in the operating system. SFC checks for system
    file corruption. Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) is a command-line tool that can be used to service a Windows image or to prepare a Windows Preinstallation Environment image.

    Kindly follow the steps in this article posted by ZigZag3143 (MS-MVP)
    to perform SFC and DISM:
    System file check (SFC) Scan and Repair System Files & DISM to fix things SFC cannot.


    We'll be waiting for your reply.
