  1. Things that were deleted still show up in settings


    Once I go to storage settings, select the C: drive, go to apps & features then sort by size, there are certain files that I have already deleted that show up. Once I try to uninstall them from the menu it will give me an error


    For example at the top of the size list is "Valorant" taking 3.85 GB and when I try to uninstall it it gives me the message "Windows cannot find 'C:/Riot Client/RiotClientServices.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again"


    I don't know if this does actually count towards space on my drive because these things were actually deleted, if I search them they dont show up. But considering storage settings things they are maybe files does too, so I would like to get rid of these.

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    Things that were deleted still show up in settings

    Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


    Suggestion:
    1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
      x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
    2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
    3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
    4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
      NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.
