C almost full disk, drive D is empty... what should I do now?
My C: (29.2 GB) is low on space... I have QuickBooks & Peachtree programs on that I can't get rid of. They will not uninstall it. I even moved the files on the D: drive, but it wasn't enough. I want to do a restore of the system, but not enough space. I have an empty D drive (418 GB). How can I make this work?

As the D drive is completely empty, i.e. unwanted data on it, you may be able to use some of its space to extend the C drive.
Right click on computer > manage > storage > disk management to show current partitions from left to right. If drive D is immediately to the right of C in the graphic layout, your luck is in, so:
1. right click on the D chart, then choose Delete to leave unallocated space.
2. right click on the graph C and choose Extend and select the amount of space you want to extend it by.
3. all the space you have left in (2) can be set up as a new drive (smaller) D by double-clicking on it and create a new Simple Volume and formatting.

Hello Datsuny, many times this error means that the hard drive has failed or the operating system on the hard disk is damaged.
I would tend to think that the hard drive has failed.

I just paid almost $10 to create a PDF from a jpg file, but I did it so that I can change it. Now I find that I needed another Adobe package that would create the pdf AND I would change it. What should I do now?
If you create a PDF file from an image, it is always a picture, and you cannot change it.
If the image contains text, then you need to perform the text recognition (OCR) before you can actually change the text. Acrobat can do that.

Pavilion g6: almost full recovery drive
my recovery disk blushed. There is a file of 570 MB inside despite 15 GB of space. you want this return to normal (at least half empty) it is possible to reduce its size by removing my personal data to other readers? Maybe this picture is a reflection of all of the files stored on my other readers (like picture of them). recovery should be the original Portable software and discs to be able to go back whenever you want. no need for hp take the image of my datas and keep it on the recovery drive have made different player has just been ablae to save safely. So what is the reason for having a such recovery files.it huge shows that 15 GB is almost full.but it is just a 570 MB file inside .even I tride to show hidden files, but nothing inside. Maybe hp hide inside this player for safe.good. But how to get back my rocovery disc still half full and not red.please help me in this regard. Thank you very much.
Hello;
Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
The ONLY way to return to its original state of the recovery partition is to do a full erase of the hard drive and reconfiguration of the PC itself Žtat factory use HP Recovery Media - and, as said, that will delete EVERYTHING on the drive!If you have backups of the image, as you requested, then you really don't need to partition and can safely remove to reclaim that space.
If Windows won't let you delete this partition, then try using this: Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition free
Good luck

My D recovery drive is about 99% full.
I continue to generate and save restore points?
Yes, you can double-click the drive in this PC and then double-click "Recovery." You should be able to right click on the files you want to delete. At least, I can do this in my D: / partition.

My d drive is saying that it is full and rejects the backup. What should I do?
I have an icon on my system tray and it says it is complete... my drive "d".
If your D drive is your recovery partition, you have a problem.How to find out?Start > Conmputer > if drive D shows the capacity of about 10 to 15 GB. This is your recovery partition.Your recovery partition D is implemented by the manufacturer of your computer in the event of serious problems in your system.
You use it to restore your system.You are NOT supposed to touch it... not for nothing to add or remove anything from.
1. ask for a set of discs of recovery of re - install Vista, in which case the system crashes.
2. ask how to remove backup files or elements that are NOT supposed to be there.
They created the recovery partition, they know how to take care of it.
Let them teach how you to.You should make the backup file or using an external hard drive or DVD.
Never, I recommend the use of DVDs. It is stone-age and ineffective, and more often than otherwise, it does not work.The best way is to use an externl HDD and do your backups it.A 1 TB external harddrive can be done under $150. It's money well spent. Believe me, I tried both ways. -
I'm on OSX El Capitan 10.11.3 and I've never used before to Seagate Backup Plus 4. I wasn't able to put the files using the Macbook Pro. It was purchased only a few hours ago.
After plugging in, he asked if I would use it for Time Machine, and it should be deleted so that it is compatible with Time Machine. This is my first time to use an external hard drive on my laptop, and it is also my first attempt to use Time Machine.
My external hard drive appears only on the disk utility now. Help, please.
In the above image, you click the physical drive. It does not show the available space. You will need to click on the item "Untitled" below to see the space actually available. "Untitled" is the real partition on the disk.
