To see how much disk space is free, hold down ALT and double-click the icon for the drive in the This PC window. You can solve disk space problems by accessing Storage in Settings or Disk Clean-up. To free disk space, try emptying the Recycle Bin. Deleted files and folders are saved in the Recycle Bin until you empty it. You can use File Explorer to see all the file son your computer.

Windows Updates On Virtual Machine Server 2019
Hi all, We are experiencing an issue when attempting to download and install Windows Updates on a Windows Server 2019 Virtual Machine, any help would be appreciated. From some reading online I believe the log which shows errors related to updates is the CBS.log, I have copied some of the first error lines below, 2021-02-26 17:20:02, Error CSI 00000046@2021/2/26:17:20:02.401 (F) Attempting to mark store corrupt with category [l:26 ml:27]'CorruptComponentsRootItems'[gle=0x80004005] 2021-02-26 17:20:02, Error CSI 00000047@2021/2/26:17:20:02.401 (F) onecore\base\wcp\componentstore\csd_transact.cpp(3870): Store corruption detected in function CCSDirect::CreateTransaction expression: 0 2021-02-26 17:20:02, Error CSI 00000048 (F) HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(14098) #8463# from Windows::COM::CComponentStore::InternalTransact(...)[gle=0x80073712] 2021-02-26 17:20:02, Error CSI 00000049 (F) HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(14098) #8461# from Windows::ServicingAPI::CCSITransaction::ICSITransaction2_Analyze(Flags = 0, riid = {f4d9decb-0250-4ad4-9500-85c7f2f281ec}, ppUnk = NULL, disp = 0)[gle=0x80073712] These seem to point to Component Store being corrupted in some way. Many were saying on some community pages that a potential solution would be to rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder incase the old downloads were corrupted, new ones would then be downloaded and a new "SoftwareDistribution" folder created, unfortunately this did not work. Another potential solution was to run admin command variations of the below, dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup This command did kick off returning image version etc but did not continue, I ensured to leave this overnight as it was advised it can take hours to complete, again no success. Short of restoring the VM's image from backup which I imagine will be a painful process I am out of ideas, any help or advise would be appreciated. Regards, Stuart
Accidentally deleted folder
I have deleted several image files to free up space and somehow managed to delete a folder that held irreplaceable images. I emptied the Recycle Bin and just discovered my mistake. Is it possible for the images be recovered. I have found the folder in One Drive but it says its empty or I don't have permission. The PC was restarted for another reason after the Recycle Bin was emptied.
External hard drive or the cloud?
I have two external hard drives and 95% of the time use my PC and my other devices have specific purposes. I don't bother to back them up. What about you? 🤨
