OS disk drive full.
I keep getting a pop up message telling me my OS drive is full but my Data drive is almost empty, I have no idea why this is or how to solve the issue as I now cannot download anything else. How do I clear up space in my OS drive?

How do I clear up space in my OS drive? Simplest way is to move your Documents, Downloads and Pictures folders to locations on the Data drive Open your Account name in Explorer, and right-click on any of the above folders select Properties. In the resulting pop-up, select the Location tab and click on Move. In the left pane, click on the Data drive (probably D:) then click on New Folder, and name the new folder Pictures. Ensure its highlighted, and click on Select Folder. Now click Apply and accept the offer to move all files. Wait until it completes, and then repeat for the other two folders.

Hi, after moving your data into the data drive you can change the download location because by defaults are Stored on System drive \ Users \ <user> \ Downloads , and to perform this take a look at this link: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=fr&answer=95574 Oussama Oueslati | System Engineer | vNext Consulting
