    What is Hardware Reserved memory and can it be changed?

    1 of my machines Win 10 Pro 64 bit 16 GB ram has a Hardware Reserve of 52 MB the

    other Win 10 Pro 32 Bit 4 GB ram has a Hardware Reserve of 557 MB.

    My friends Win 10 Home 32 Bit 8 GB ram has a Hardware Reserved of 6.4 GB.

    How can this be? Windows 32 bit machine can only see less the 4 GB's?

    Can this be decreased?

    Any Help, information or comments will be appreciated.

  3. Storage app is not showing the correct free space!

    In my Lumia 640, run by Win 10, the Storage tile is not showing the correct free space for my RAM and SD memory, on it – both of which are actually more than what is shown. But in the Storage app the free spaces are correctly displayed.



    I’ve restarted my mobile several times, but the result is the same.



    Btw, after upgrading to Win 10, “System & reserved” is consuming 5.65 GB out of the 7.28 GB internal memory that I’ve got. Don’t you think 5.65 gb looks too much?



    And why is the internal memory advertised as 8 GB?

    Mine is only 1.3GB and most of the space was taken from the local folder. Download: TreeSize Free Portable then run and post a screen shot of the Users folder as shown below. This will give us some idea where all the disk space was taken.

    Maybe he is talking about other partitions rather than the Users folder. He isn't very clear.
