My ASUS E200H laptop is pre-installed with Win 10 but only has 32G storage with an additional 32G micro SD card.

The Win 10 upgrade is demanding an additional 8G storage which I cannot do, therefore the upgrade will not download. I cannot make the download directly to the SD card.

How can I upgrade?

Thanks

    Hint: Do not use auto update when in this situation. You must download the ISO file to the SD drive in the first place, read through this entire thread as well as follow the complete instructions from my previous post and you should find that some combination of should work out for you too. AS a side note: any one that is POed that this has become an issue in the first place should turn their attention to the device manufacturer for promoting and selling a device with an inadequate sized main drive for the known application requirement of the OS they chose to preinstall and market as fully viable as such.

    Hi AndyDavies1,

    Best to just insert the MicroSD card and go into Control Panel and do a manual Windows Update.  This way the update will offer the extra storage space.

    Otherwise the Auto-update software currently will not offer up the additional space.

    We have the same issue with our Asus e200ha netbook. It has an internal 32GB solid state drive and a micro SD expansion slot into which we have inserted an additional 64GB card.

    Windows can see the additional card and it has a drive letter but the auto update won't make use of the extra space.

    The only software installed on the internal 32GB of memory is Windows itself so we can't delete anything else and we still don't have enough space, even after running the disk space cleanup.
