  1. Windows show incorrect screen sizes under "Display Settings" - Incorrect alignments


    This issue has been around in Windows for many years. I have the following problem:Screen 1: 27 inches @ 2560 x 1440Screen 2: 13 inches @ 2560 x 1440Screen 3: 24 inches @ 1920 x 1080Displayed screen sizes shouldn't be based on resolution alone.It makes alignment work incorrectly when mouse cursor moves among screens.PLEASE: Do not respond me with update drivers, change screen scale, change resolution. That is not the issue.

    Windows 10 Displaying Incorrect Total Size of Drive. [Fixed: Was problem on Mac OS displaying incorrect total size]

    Thanks for everyones reply.

    I have come to realize that it wasn't Windows 10 that was showing the incorrect total size. It was Mac OS that was showing incorrect total size to begin with.

    So this question has more or less been answered, and I was wondering how I would go about deleting this post because I've posted an error on Windows that doesn't exist, which can mislead other users when they read it.

    Incorrect disk usage values displayed in Settings > System > Storage


    If I open Settings in Windows 10, then go to System > Storage, I get the following usage for C:
    161Gb used of 285Gb
    whereas File Explorer gives the more sensible 21Gb used of 145Gb, which is almost certainly the correct values, given that it is a 145Gb partition, and is a fresh install of Windows 10. The C: partition is on a 480Gb SSD drive.

    Here is a screenshot of disk management showing the correct values

    And here is a screenshot of the Storage screen with the incorrect values

    Can anyone explain why this is?

    Thanks.
