Can I remove updates in order to make more room?

Hello...

I was wondering, I havve 33 installed the updates can take away to make more room?

Yes, updates can be deleted, but you shouldn't remove updates because they are there for various reasons such as keeping your computer up to date, secure and faster.

Please see this article I wrote on how to free up disk space and speed up your system.

I'm sure that there are some old system restore points you can delete to get a lot of disk space.

  • I can't access drive "D" and remove some content to make more room.

    * Original title: upgrade.

    Hello. I'm trying to reinstall my own copy of windows 7 Ultimate on my laptop for a clean start.

    My problem is that, because I only did this for a while the "D" partition is completely filled. The bar that shows the ability is red instead of green and because there is no place, I can't reinstall the O/P.

    For some reason, I can't access drive "D" and remove some content to make more room. It does not appear on Device Manager, and when I try to access it through my computer it shows "D" drive must be empty.

    I also tried to add and remove programs, but they all seem to be on the C"" drive.

    How do I enter "D" drive to remove enough information for me to finish a reinstall?

    Start the custom installation, it will ask you where store system.  Click Advanced.  Delete all partitions.  The installation process will create the partitions, that he needs and format.  I recommend strongly against any other that what Windows 7 install really wants partitioning.
