Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

I keep getting pop ups on my screen telling me I'm running out of storage space which is weird as I have hardly any files stored on this noteboook.  I mainly use it for internet access and I want to use it to download programmes from BBC Iplayer and if possible, some movies and music.  I haven't been able to download much at all so I invested in an SD card but I can't download either the ipayer app or any programmes to it due to BBC licencing regulations.

 

I was advised by someone on the live chat at the BBC to move apps from the notebook hard drive to the SD card to make storage space but I hae no idea how to do this. 

 

Any advice anyone??

Firstly move all user files (musics, videos, photos ...) to SD card. After that you may be able to move some apps (not all because many apps won't allow us to move to SD card) using the following tutorials

Hi,

 

As I said, not many apps allow us to move

So I obviously need to uninstall some of the other prgrammes that came with the notebook but I don't know which ones are vital to the operating system.  There are so many HP ones I have no idea what they do!  Any tips would be appreciated!  Thanks again
