Hi Guys,

I updated my Win10 last night and completed this morning. It took over 2hrs and I was shocked to see that the "free space" on the HD was reduced by 9GB by this update! I have 21GB left, so another 2 updates like this and I will be out altogether. I'd be very intested to hear if anyone else experience the same problem.

Panic over gentlemen. I found Windows.old folder, which I previously erased, back again. After a reboot into Puppy and another deletion I am back to the free space I had before the update. It is a real pain in the Jennifer Lopez that one has to do this and that nothing is mentioned in the supporting notes about accummulation of files in this folder.

Lynnrose: Good luck, vaping is still better for you Nov 22, 2024 7:01:56 GMT

mikkh: It was pretty easy with the help of vapes, which I've dabbled with for years but never really stuck to full time - till now. One bad habit for another maybe, but I feel healthier and it's definitely a lot cheaper. Nov 21, 2024 7:45:12 GMT

Lynnrose: Congrats Mikkh! Were you one of the lucky ones and stopped easily, or was it hard work? Nov 21, 2024 4:58:30 GMT
