How To Survive With Very Little Disk Space On A Tablet

Oct 17, 2012

I moved to a Samsung tablet core I5 with Windows 8 Enterprise and I have to survive with very low capacity SSD drive. After Windows 8 Intallation, O13 installation, and a strict minimum of corporate applications, I'm left with less than 21 gig available space for my files ... It was already hard with a 128 gig SSD, things have just gone worst. I do not plan to plug an external hard drive all the time ...

1) I added a microSD drive of 32 gig, but... I cannot add up this drive to any Library (documents, pictures, video or music),how to force the system to accept the microSD as "permanent drive"

2) I need a cloud / server cache system that would enable "partial sync" for offline files (not always connected to Internet)

3) Any search tool to recommend that is also searching emails since Windows 8 doesn't search into Outlook files ost and pst (W7 did this)

Setup Installation :: 87% Free Space But List Disk Shows No Free Space Available?

Mar 14, 2013

I installed Windows 8 Pro on a GPT partition. I have 234GB of SSD with 87% free space according to Disk Management. I am trying to create a 4GB primary partition for Intel Rapid Start but the Disk Part shows i have no space available in that drive and would not let me create the partition. Why would that be?

How To Clean Up Computer Disk Space

Oct 21, 2013

Have you found that the hard space of your computer was gradually eaten up by all the files you unlikely know? If you’re haunted a lot by such a problem and want to stop it, you just need to download Colorful Disk Clean and totally relax yourself. Colorful Disk Clean will scan all the folders or files and recover the disk space whenever you want.

The color-coded sunburst map clearly displays both the hierarchical structure of files and folder and the relative size of each. What’s the most important, with a simple drag and drop, you can remove all the system files and other items that you no longer need.

Windows 8 - How To Clear Up Computer Disk Space

Oct 20, 2013

My computer system is windows8. When I try to download something or just run some programs, a warning would show up and said that I have low disk space. How can I clear my disk space? Also, I wonder a simple disk defragmentation could be enough.

(Do I need to use a disk cleaner like Colorful Disk Clean? This program looks useful).

Setup Installation :: How Much Disk Space Does Win 8 Pro 32-bit Install Takes

Jan 5, 2013

I would like to try Windows 8 Pro on my PC, I've currently installed Windows 7 Ultimate (32-bit) with SP1 on my PC which takes about 7.8 gigs of disk space. So, my question is that how much disk space does a normal clean installation of Windows 8 Pro (32-bit) takes?

Updates :: Windows 8 Update Taking Up Too Much Disk Space

Jul 14, 2014

I just did a clean install of windows 8 without all the Dell software being installed on my Dell Inspiron 7720 17R SE Laptop.

When the installation was finished I had 179GB of free space showing on the 200GB drive C: partion.

I just finished downloading and installing 111 recommended Windows updates and I now have only 164GB of free space showing on drive C:

I dread to think how much more space will be taken up when I upgrade to 8.1

Surely Windows updates shouldn't take up 15GB of space...How I can recover some of this space.

Disk Space Usage Bars In My Computer Are Missing

Nov 21, 2012

For some reason, the disk space usage bars in 'My Computer' are missing. Although they should be visible in 'tile view', I can only see the drive icons, not the bars. Interestingly, When I open a file in e.g. Word I can see the bars in the open file dialog (also in 'tile view'). I've already tried resetting the folder view settings, but without any luck.

Maintenance :: Windows 8 - Free Disk Space Monitoring Tool?

Mar 3, 2013

One of my favorite features of Windows Explorer was that it told me the free disk space in the status bar. Since Windows Vista, you also had the ability to see the free space on hard drives across the network.

Now in Windows 8 you can't even in the least see the free space on the status bar of your own pc, let alone those across the network, and for someone who's constantly moving files across my home network, it's becoming a bit of a hassle.

I don't think there's away to to restore this functionality (already installed the ClassicShell program) so absent of that, is there a free disk space monitoring tool recommended? I'm mainly looking for one that has a system tray function that can tell me the amount of free space I have left, either in percentage form, or megabyte form, or gigabyte form, whatever.

Maintenance :: Error Creating Backup Image / Not Enough Disk Space

Aug 12, 2013

Since a week is it impossible to make a Win7 Backup Image (Control Panel).

This is the feature that got removed in 8.1 but now (on 8) I'm still using it in case I need to restore the OS.

The message shows this:

"Not enough disk space" but I have 360GB free on one disk and 150GB on another. The image is calculated at 67GB and it worked each time until now.

All OS updates installed.

Maintenance :: Disk Space Analysis Tools Compatible With OneDrive?

Sep 15, 2014

I have just done a clean install of 8.1 on my old MacBook Pro as I broke the screen on my normal laptop. I could only afford to give 40GB to this new installation so I'm quite tight for space.

I've always used [URL] .... to check for disk usage but in my case it is not useful as it shows size of items not the size on disk. I have to keep my OneDrive files on-line only to save space but as they are reported as part of used disk space I am seeing 150% of my disk space is used which isn't useful really. In Disk Management I can see it is only 59%.

Any utility like WinDirStat that shows size on disk?

How To Make Windows 8 Survive Hard Shutdown

May 21, 2014

Okay, so I did an experiment which I performed a hard shutdown (holding power button for 5 seconds) and each time after that windows refuse to start normally and auto repair fails, forcing me to refresh the pc/reimage the drive/system restore/cd which is troublesome. (depends)

Last time when I was using windows xp, 7 and vista on my old pc. Whenever my pc hangs/freezes I used to be able to perform a hard shutdown and know that there won't be any real consequences.

So how to get my current pc to display this toughness because I know that eventually somewhere in the future my PC will hang for whatever reason and I need my PC to be reliable when I do a hard shutdown.

Setup Installation :: Clean Installation Win 8 Failure (No Disk Space)

Aug 18, 2014

I partitioned my hard disk into a 150GB (C) and 500GB (D) and upgraded from Win7 to Windows 8 (and subsequently Windows 8.1 after the recent updates). The OS is installed onto the C Drive.

Performed a Clean Installation of Windows 8 on my C Drive. Under the Choose What To Keep Option, I selected Nothing.

Technically speaking my C Drive would have been wiped clean but after the Windows 8 installation, my C Drive only has 5GB of space left (145GB is being used). The Windows 8 OS is not detecting any of the old programs in my C Drive and the automated Disk Clean up feature only offers removal of temporary internet files. Which brings me to one possible assumption...

The Clean Installation Failed. Windows 8 simply installed itself again on my C Drive and the remaining disk space (containing my previous Windows 8.1 OS and programs) is locked down somewhere. I suspect this had something to do with changing my HD format 3 years ago when I wiped clean my pre-loaded ASUS laptop Win7 and partitioned it to install my Windows 8.

How to remove my previous OS?

Disk Usage - Getting Error Messages Saying That Disk Is Almost Full?

Jan 9, 2014

I'm running windows 8 on a partition so I use it mostly for gaming. I have 115 GB on the partition, and when I totaled all the files in my Bootcamp drive it comes to a total of about 80 GB, 50 from games, 20 from the OS. However, I'm constantly getting error messages saying that my disk is almost full and that 105 gigabytes have been used. I've tried CCleaner and disk cleanup but nothing big is found. So why would it be using space greater than what can be seen in the disk when using explorer and is there any way to fix this error (if it is one)?

Synching Between Outlook On Tablet And Laptop?

Aug 14, 2014

I use Outlook 2013 on my laptop (Windows 7) and also on my Windows Surface tablet (Windows 8.1). Can I sync the two accounts so that if I read and reply to emails on one device it will be the same on the other? Also why the Junk option on the ribbon is greyed out on the tablet? One last question, which seems daft, is I can't fathom how to highlight a list on the tablet. On a laptop I would hold down the shift key and then use the down arrow, such as if I want to delete a load of emails.

I have a Lenovo lynx win 8 tablet. I connect a usb gamepad. I see that it is recognized as usb generic gamepad (although in device manager I don't see a gamepad). The same gamepad work ok in nexus 7 tablet. Perhaps I need some kind of drivers? In control panel I don't see "gamepad" or something like this, as I see in pc.

Tablets :: Windows 8 Tablet Desktop Mode?

Feb 26, 2014

How to make Windows 8 desktop more usable? I was thinking of adding a mac os x style dock, since that seems a lot easier to use on a tablet. The icons are all pretty big and easily clickable.

Was thinking of modding the skin of windows 8 to make it look like mac os x. It seems like mac os x desktop is more touchscreen friendly,as in everything is accessible easily. Making the desktop bigger/up font just makes it look too big.

Lost Win 8 Tablet - Any Way To Locate Or Erase Remotely?

Oct 2, 2013

I left my Dell Latitude 10 Tablet (Windows 8 x86) on the roof of my car ... and it wasn't there after returning from my short drive.

I know with Android you can remotely install applications and even out of the box you can just find the GPS location by going to the google play website.

Is there ANYTHING I can do now after the fact with Windows 8? Any way to remotely install, have microsoft track next time someone turns it on (since it's logged in via email address), or do anything?
