Windows 10: Ubuntu takes ... how much?

So, apparently, Ubuntu I have installed on Windows takes 128 TB on my 256 GB SSD. Okay, then!

Networking issue - Windows and Ubuntu

Went on a short trip, took my Windows 10 laptop, turned off the Ubuntu computer and my wife's Windows 10 computer. When I returned, I turned everything back on and nether Windows computer could see the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS computer. On the Ubuntu computer, Files/Network clicking on Windows Network received "Unable to access location - Failed to retrieve share list from server: No such file or directory" error. Both Windows computers were able to use the Ubuntu before the trip.

Any suggestions?

Ubuntu terminal not displaying git messages correctly

Hi Patrick,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that the output for Ubuntu terminal is not showing properly for GIT commands.



I suggest you to try re-enabling Windows Subsystem for Linux and then uninstalling and re-installing Ubuntu from Microsoft Store. Follow the steps to disable Windows Subsystem for Linux and uninstall Ubuntu.



Disable Windows Subsystem for Linux:

1. Press Windows key + R. This will open
   Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for Run.
   
2. In Run dialog box, type
   appwiz.cpl and hit enter.
   
3. Now on the left hand pane click on
   Turn Windows features on or off.
   
4. Now on the Windows feature window scroll down and uncheck the box next to
   Windows Subsystem for Linux.
   
5. Click on OK and Restart the PC.
   

Uninstall the Ubuntu app:

1. Go to Settings >
   Apps > Apps & features.
