Disk Management Is Seriously Misreading My Storage
I recently tried to uninstall McAfee from a brand new HP W10 laptop using the McAfee Product removal tool, but the uninstall quit partway through the process leaving me with half a program that couldn't run or uninstall either.
I didn't know what else to do so I finally reset my computer so I could start all over.
Unfortunately the removal tool failed and stuck again and I had to reset the computer again, only this time the Reset stuck at 40% completion. After waiting 2 hours it was still on 40% and not moving.
Finally I decided to shut it off and restart. When it started, it said "A configuration change was requested to clear this computer's TPM Module". It said press F1 to continue or F2 to not. I pressed F1, it rebooted and started up.
I downloaded Revo to get rid of McAfee and finished setting up the computer.
The computer has been running fine since then.
But here's he problem.....I have a 1 TB SSD and I just discovered that Disk Management recognizes 940GB capacity but it says there's only 16GB free, and that is totally impossible.
Speccy (Piriform Software) agrees there's 940GB capacity but says only 2% free space. What's going on?
I have no games, very little music and nowhere near that much software.
The computer thinks I'm using 98% of my C Drive and I'm only using a small percentage! What happened?
I'm sure there's a connection with what happened with that reset, but what do I do now?
