    Storage Filling Up Problem.


    Hello. Thanks for helping me out. I recently got a new computer, about a week ago and I’ve downloaded some software and games. Primarily MSFS from the Xbox Store. My C Drive has been going up little by little ever since I installed the game. It was just 235 GB available 1 day ago, now it’s 219 GB. Is it cache? How would I get rid of it? And I swear I don’t have that many applications on my C Drive. But my C Drive is still more full than it should be. Some other software I installed shouldn’t be more than 10-20 GB. My current C Drive is 219 GB available out of 474.

    On the other hand, I was installing a few games from the Xbox Store and cancelled a download because I didn’t need it. When I cancelled it, the storage didn’t go up. Caches? I have no clue.

    Can anyone help me out here? Maybe I can check what software is taking up my drives, if that’s even possible. I’m a type of person who gets annoyed at full storages. Many thanks.

    :)

    Xbox one storage filling up fast.

    Sorry to hear it. You can attach up to two external USB devices to your console for extra storage. They must be USB 3.0 compatible and can range in size from 256GB to 16TB. Currently I have an external 1TB drive although I'm going to need more space soon
    as well.
