Unfortunately, no -- the "disk" storage can not be increased beyond the 32GB.

 

However, there are two thing to consider:

1) Running utilities to free up "disk space"

2) Using add-on storage hardware

 

In terms of the first ----------------------------------

 

Here are some things you can do to recover some of the disk space:

Also, the community Win10 Forums has the following suggestions:

In addition, I have found the utility Cleanmgr+ to have LOTS of options for removing Windows junk, including log files. I use it practically every day. You can get it from here:

Also, there is a freeware app known as Wise Disk Cleaner. I use it every day to get rid of junk files: https://www.wisecleaner.com/wise-disk-cleaner.html

 

In terms of the second ------------------------------

You might be able to use a 32GB USB stick and an SD card that size or larger.  They do not always work, but sometimes, they do.
