  1. Windows Keeps Referring Back to My Main Storage


    Hello all. I want to update my windows 10 computer to the latest update (1093), but unfortunately, it appears everything that I've tried won't let me. My computer doesn't have the storage so I'm attempting to download the update via my USB flash drive from the Media Creation Tool or the regular way of going through the settings. Every time I attempt this, windows keeps saying my computer doesn't have the storage and doesn't list my USB as an option to load the update to. Also, my USB has more than enough space for the download. However, my computer does recognize my flash drive to load apps or other things. I'm thoroughly confused and frustrated, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Windows 10 Home will not boot or restart with USB Storage Spaces pool drives attached

    Hi George,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.


    • Did you make any changes in BIOS?

    • Are you getting any error message?
    I suggest you to update Storage controller drivers and check if it helps.

    Steps 1:


    • Press Windows key + X.

    • Select Device manager.

    • Expand Storage controller.

    • Right click on the driver and Update the drivers.


    Steps 2: Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue
    is with device. Refer these steps:


    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.

    • Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.

    • Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.

    • Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.


    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help
