Windows 10: Tip #578: Making space

Tip #578: Look at the size of things, folders, files et al on your OS drive Sys driveoccasionally. When you can move stuff to an External Drive OR OneDrive... it's always good if the OS drive free space can be kept as large as possible by it not being a long-term storage location.


Can do the same with your internal Data drive.

The more free space drives have the happier they are & the better your machine works.

Cheers,

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
