Check available memory

Want to check how much memory you have available? You can also set where to save your files in the future.

• Swipe in from the right of the screen, and tap Settings icon > Change PC settings > Search and apps > App sizes.

• Under App sizes, you can see the amount of available memory.

• If you’re running out of space, first check for and remove things you no longer need:

• Text, multimedia, and mail messages

• Contact entries and details

• Apps

• Music, photos, videos, or other files

Note: To free up storage space on your tablet, you can store your photos, documents, and other stuff on SkyDrive instead of your tablet. You can download the stuff back to your tablet when you need it.

Remove an app from your tablet

You can remove installed apps that you no longer want to keep or use, to increase the amount of available memory.

• On the start screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen, and tap Customize.

• Tap the app.

• Tap Delete icon.

• If you remove an app, you may be able to reinstall without buying again, as long as the app is available in Store.

• If an installed app depends on a removed app, the installed app may stop working. Not all apps can be removed.
