How to check the amount of free space on your PC. {Windows}

in compurer •  6 years ago  (edited)

When you install apps or download images, videos, games on your PC they take up space in your Hard drive.
(You can check the amount of free space on your to make sure the computer will not run out of room.)

I'll show you how to do it in Windows 10. ( It just takes a few steps.)

  1. Open File Explorer.( You can use the keyboard shortcut, Windows key + E or tap the folder icon in the taskbar.)

  2. Tap or click This PC from the left pane.(You can see the amount of free space on your hard disk under the Windows (C:) drive and Windows 10 hard drive space)

That's it! The progress bar gives you a visual guide on how much you've used up already. Underneath that, you see the numbers. For example, Currently my pc is 224 GB free out of 292 GB.

If you need extra storage, you can store your media (Images, Videos) on external USB drives ( Or even microSD cards if your device has a slot available).
You can grab a 2TB portable external USB hard drive for less than $100 on Amazon.
