My 500gb C Drive is only allowing 143gb to be used.
Hello, I removed Linux Mint from my laptop and added windows 8.1 after deleting all my partitions. I then Upgraded to windows 10. For the 1st few days it said i had the 500gb for the max however over night it dropped to 143gb. As seen bellow.
((NOTE: This photo is showing only 143gb however it is a 500gb hard drive))
I also took the steps to reinstall & reformat the laptop. Also updated the BIOS and had no luck. I have also tried using WinDirStat to see if it was being hidden somewhere however it seems it just up and vanished. Is there any way I can fix this to get the 500gb back.
