  2. STORAGE , APPS & FEATURES

    Hi,

    upon going to system settings and seeing the storage i can see that the apps & features is occupying 160 GB

    but upon clicking on it , it hardly show me 4 GB worth of information approx.

    i am not sure what apps & features is taking up so much space and no details are being shown.

    i have checked both in control panel and the settings app.

    i am currently on WIN10.

  3. The Phone Storage Usage Is Showing More Space

    Hi I'm having Lumia 640 XL . The storage usage of phone is showing pending updates and preview builds of 49.9 MB . Sometimes it shows 6.85 GB used out of 7.28 GB and sometimes it shows 6.70 GB . I have removed some apps from the phone memory and moved
    to SD card then also it is showing the same storage of the phone .

    Apps & features disc space doesn't add up to storage use listed

    Under "Settings," and "Storage," my OS_Install (CWhat could cause the Apps and Features storage to show 54 GB used but the details show... :) total size is 238 GB.

    Under "This is how your storage is used and how you can free up space," it says...

    Apps & features....98.8 GB

    Yet even a cursory total of all programs listed (by size) under Apps & features reveals a total of about 1.5 GB.

    And, a bunch of programs are listed at the bottom (including at least one that needs a lot of storage space) without *any* numbers.

    Should I presume that the Settings -> Storage utility is incapable of listing ALL programs and all of the space they require?

    Why the massive difference (98.8 GB vs 1.5 GB)?
