  1. "update" that doesn't do anything besides eating 26gb of space!!


    I have NO idea why there is a folder named windows10update after days of seeing my hdd space being took by this update that i've searched for.

    since that took so many gb of space i wondered if was one of those really big large updates but after search about it it seems that the latest was that HORRIBLE april's one; that I had to dodge away from it (not now in may) because it was impossible to use the things after it.

    ANYWAY this huge thing is not that because i don't see this downloaded update stuff being related to that april one, and because there is no information at all in the recent installed updates list there's nothing in there from recent activity (only adobe flash stuff that was updated a few days ago - and clearly wouldn't be 26GB!!!).


    NOT to start to mention that it was doing something harmful to the system. All of sudden I notice that there was a task named dism that stood there for 5+ HOURS at 99% disk activity and was basically killing my hardware making the disk reach 52º degrees something i NEVER saw happening. At the max of the max of hdd temp that i reached while doing heavy stuff etc never went more than 48/49. How come this can happen with updates!!!!!!!? And add to that, that i was doing nothing while this went. I mean not an explorer, not a broswer, not a file, anything else working on in here.

    The only thing left for me to do was close the laptop the minute it started get so hot and LAGGY that the mouse was not flowing through the screen smoothly/normally!!

    I want to know what it this thing and how to get rid of it. It took basically a third of the left disk space i had and it's ridiculous.

    :)

  3. Double Tap doesn`t work on Lumia 620

    Hello,

    Double Tap to wake doesn`t work at my Lumia 620. I have all on in settings but still doesn`t work. I`m pretty sure that in update AMBER or BLACK this function works properly. But after DENIM update doesn`t. Maybe you are planning some update for this future
    ?

    Thanks

    my 3Dprinter doesn´t appear

    My 3D printer doesn´t appear on when I open 3D builder on the left popup to choose printer.

    Is it need to do any previous step?? I thought It was plug and play. the printer is an UP Plus2 from Tiertime so, it is one of the recommended partners manufaturers. any message of error just doesnçt possible to send the prin.
