Increase the C: drive and reduce the E: drive decrease?

Hi all

My c: drive------fills constantly which is causing the overall performance of my laptop to be very bad. It is very slow! I don't have a lot of files etc on my C: drive, but it still keeps filling in shortly after a cleanup and defragmentation. My E: drive is constantly empty and I want to be able to use this space on my C: drive.

I don't want to move the files to the E: drive 'free' space on C: because I don't have a lot of files on C: to move.

Can I change the volumes of each drive to increase the capacity of C: and diminish the ability of e: or can I remove E: and give all the space on C:

Any help would be appreciated?

Thank you
Colin

Hello Colin

In General, you can do what you want and all this can be done in computer management > disk management.
I don't know what model of laptop you have, but for laptops with HARD drive recovery image, it is not recommended to change the partition structure because it can have a negative influence on the HDD recovery procedure. If you have ever portable model and you created the recovery DVDs then you can do this. For the installation of the OS, you can use recovery disk installation only.

Back to your question.
In my opinion there is no great sense to change this structure of score because you can use the free space on the second partition for your daily activities. I don't know what you're doing exactly, but all your data like mp3s, pictures, movies, office stuff, and anything else can be saved on the second partition.
You can also set the second partition as the target of download and all files you download will be saved there.

Your sentence is a little strange to me.
> You wrote
> I do not want to move the files to the E: drive 'free' space on C: because I don't have a lot of files on C: to move.
So I wonder what you do to fill the C partition, but there is nothing to move. Can you please explain it to me?

  • Satellite A200 does not correctly reduce or increase the volume

    Hello

    Our Satellite A200 is having problems with its Volume control wheel.
    If I turn the wheel (on the left or in the past), it does not correctly to reduce or increase the volume level.
    He jumps rather the volume level in seemingly random directions (with a preference for the volume).
    Turn the wheel slowly improves responsiveness a little, but it remains quite impossible to increase or decrease the volume control that to be.

    BTW, I am well aware that the volume control wheel is a wheel of puls-encoder rather than ye olde potentiometer.

    -Can anyone you tell me where I can find the configuration that is responsible for this Volume control wheel?
    -Which driver/firmware is attached to the order of the volume control?
    -How can I determine if this is a hardware or software problem?

    Advice would be welcome.

    Hello

    There is no software or hardware problem.
    It is a new generation of volume control.

    First of all there is no mechanical limit turning right or left.
    In addition, this volume controller works a little different than the old volume controllers. The volume can be increased and decreased using the fixed rate

    By the way;
    > Can someone tell me where I can find the configuration that is responsible for this Volume control wheel?
    You can change the volume as in the sound settings that could be found in the control panel.

  • My C drive in its entirety. Out of 116 GB only 2.5 GB is free. The computer has become slow. How to increase the memory...

    C diving shows red color. I deleted some programs but it is not very effective. Many updates of 2011 are also theire to the program. It's because of the backup of files. I have the space on drive D and E. How can I increase the space on the C drive.

    Hi Laxman,

    Thanks for posting the question on Microsoft Community Forums.

    Looks like you need to free up space in the C drive that the volume is full.

    1. have you upgraded your operating system, or it came pre-installed with Windows 7?

    2. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

    Use the disk cleanup utility

    I suggest you run the disk cleanup utility a delete all unnecessary removal first and then check if the issuepersists.

    You can't do this with the tools built into Windows XP, but you can use third-party disk partitioning tools. Although these tools are generally safe, it is always a good idea to make backups before using an any of them.

    Hello

    Control Panel - SOUNDS - Audio peripheral devices configuration-manager

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version on the tab of the driver in the device as a sound Manager often restoring drivers, then install
    the current version. Restart and check after each try, not uncommon to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more.
    Just make sure that the version you have installed appears in the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • It is possible to combine hard disks to increase the space for the C: drive?

    My c drive is running out of space. However there enough space in the hard disk in the other readers. Is it possible to combine one or two partitions c and increase the space available in c without formatting. I'm using vista Home premium

    It is possible, if you format a partition you want to combine. If you have some data, you can move them to another place or external drive. Then I say you want to combine the D and C drive (you could do it with any other drive):

    1) go to start, then right click on computer and then click on manage

    (2) then find storage-> disk management

    (3) right click on the D drive, then click on remove

    (4) then right click on C, then click on expand

    Note that in this case, as I said information on drive D will be lost. So make sure you save them. It might be a question that if you install something on drive D, you will need to reinstall it.

    Drive D example right, you have picked any other player.

    I have shrunk the drive C to unallocated space of 10 GB and used free software EaseUS to increase the size of the disk D (I couldn't increase using windows).

    If your configuration is set with the partitions in a certain order or Setup, it can be moved using this tool, so you should come back to something like ZigZag3143 (Windows devices & for IT Pro MS - MVP) suggested.  Or another option is to save what concerns you, format the drive and reinstall everything fresh (it may be too much for you, but it is an option).

  • Is there a simple way to reduce/increase the two A / track V sizes in the CC timeline? [was: Adobe CC]

    There are keyboard shortcuts for expand/collapse the heights of the audio track and shortcuts to expand/collapse the heights of video tracks, but not both at the same time in increments (although you can quickly develop their all at the same time).

    If you are using Premiere Pro default keyboard:

    Opt + - / = collapses / develops audio tracks

    Cmnd + - / = collapses / expands the video tracks

    Shift += develops all the video AND audio tracks

    Shift + - collapses all the video AND audio tracks

  • How to increase the size of the c: drive in image master clone related?

    I have a pool of clone related with an image master.  drive c: must be increased because of all of the updates on the master VM.  But when I turned off the master VM, it is grayed out and cannot be changed.  I have a number of clichés associated with the master image as well.  I read that I have to remove or delete all the snapshots before I can increase the size, but then does that mean that I lose all my changes since the first base image?

    Thanks the community for comment.

    Removal of the snapshots in snapshot Manager means in fact that you're merging deltas in the snapshots in the basic disk, i.e. preserve the current state. Assuming that it is a floating pool and only the latest snapshot is used for clones, it should work to remove snapshots, resize the disk/partition and recompose the pools of a newly created snapshot when you completed the master update.

  • Conditional marking, a single source and reduce the size of the project

    Hi all

    I use RoboHelp 10, and trying to find a solution to some of the problems addressed in the draft I am trying, as:

    1. The RoboHelp project that we are working on is pretty important. As a result, generating output takes a long time. WebHelp output takes more than 15 minutes at times, while the PDF output gets stuck, and in the end, we need to cancel it. We have some sections in our project, which are widely used by all authors. If we do not want to divide the project into several projects of the children and then merge again as this would mean the unequal distribution of work among the members of our team. How can we reduce the size of the project to increase the efficiency? Is this something to do with file corruption or the number of pages?
    2. We use two separate projects for CS Help and WebHelp. We also plan to label conditional content WebHelp for CS project, so that we can create the help CS and WebHelp by using single-sourcing. One solution that I think might work is to create a new table of contents using CS in the project of WebHelp and generate the output labeled. To try it out, it didn't work well. Also, can I use a different style sheet for WebHelp and CS Help? If so, any suggestions as to how I can do?

    I'd appreciate it really all the help of all the experts here.

    Thank you

    RA

    Thanks for the additional info, Rachael.

    Regarding, "exclude no referenced topics of output", something to keep in mind that several output formats will include topics that are not explicitly listed in the table of contents. If this checkbox allows to exclude topics that you have not otherwise referenced.

    However, another approach uses conditional build tags that are applied to the topic-level.

    For example, your 2,000 pages assume a large part of those who did not appear in the table of contents, but you want a handful of reference pages available through the function of Research . Follow these steps:

    1. Create a conditional build tag along the lines, "Exclude all."
    2. In the list of subjects, select all, right click and choose Properties.
    3. On the Advanced tab, check your box exclude everything ,... .tick once... and then wait for RoboHelp update (it will be a long wait for 2 000 subjects.
    4. Once you have a visual confirmation that the box is checked, click OK to close the dialog box. Still, there is a lag.
    5. In your table of contents, right-click on each chapter and use shortcut keys [y + n] to access conditional compilation tags.
    6. For each chapter, in turn, clear the exclude from all check box. There will be a slight shift by the number of topics in each chapter.
    7. In the list of topics, find the topics that, if they are not in the table of contents, you want to be compiled with the project. Clear the checkbox to exclude everything for each one.
    8. In the conditional build Expression for your project, make sure your tag exclude from all in the column exclude output .
