    Disable Reserved Storage

    Hi AveryMillis1

    are you sure that the reserved storage feature is enabled?

    is this a new machine? or have you clean installed windows 10 1003 or later?

    check in settings -> system -> storage

    click on show more categories

    click on system & reserved

    is reserved storage in the list?

    check settings -> system -> about

    under windows specifications

    what version is installed?

    System and Reserved storage taking more space.

    My system and reserved storage takes 160 GB. The window 10 alone takes 44 GB? The system restore takes around 80GB. Please help me with storage settings.

    system and reserve files taking too much space

    My system and reserve files are taking up 105 of the 119 GB available - what can I do about this. I have been running this system for about 4 years and this problem only just started happening a few months ago - I have followed all the steps of cleaning
    and optimizing storage
