Windows 10: using sd card to expand memory

My C drive is close to full. I need more space so I can update my laptop. Can a SD card be used for that purpose?

:)

 

SD CARD

All appps are installed in phone memory. There is no way around this. You can install a game FROM the SD card but it is then installed in the device's main memory.



STEP 1: Copy all the .xap files which you want to install in your Windows 8 phone to your SD card.

STEP 2: Now go to Start -> Store -> SD card and wait for few minutes for all the .xap files to be loaded.

STEP 3: Select the app which you want to install -> Select Install option.

STEP 4: If your apps are compatible then you can see them in the Compatible apps list if not it will be shown in the Incompatible apps list.

STEP 5: Once you have successfully installed the apps, you can see those apps listed in the Apps list from start.

Memory Stick to SD Adapter Question

I have a Sony W120. As SD cards are less expensive than Memory Stick's , can I use a SD card with a Memory Stick to SD adapter in this camera ?

Which adapter would you suggest ?

 

SD CARD ERROR

Hi,

Since you already performed a hard reset and the issue was only resolved for a short period of time. We suggest that you format your SD card using the steps below:

• Connect your memory card to a PC with a USB reader that has a microSD card slot. If your card reader or PC has a regular SD card slot, you can use a microSD card adapter.
  
• Use the File Explorer and browse to the removable storage on your computer, right-click the memory card and select Format.
• For 4-32 GB cards, select the file system FAT32 and allocation unit size 32 kilobytes and press Start. For 64-200 GB cards, select the file system exFAT and allocation unit size 128kB.
• Press OK to confirm the data loss warning message. When the formatting process is complete, press OK.
• Restore only the data that is compatible with your phone (JPEG or MP4 in the photos folder or MP3 in the music folder).
• Right-click the memory card, select Eject, and wait until it is safe to remove the card.
• Insert the memory card into the memory card slot in the phone until it locks into place.

After formatting a SD card, try to check if the issue persists.

If formatting your SD card didn't resolved the issue, we suggest that you use another SD card to check if the issue still persists.

Let us know the results.

Regards.
