Hello Brink and all of you!
Third time with you (Seven, Vista and now Eight)
I just got a new PC with Windows 8 (bought by me) installed. Machine made on my design, so without branded software such as HP, Compaq, etc.. It.s a "monster PC"
Looking at the C drive (128GB SSD) I was shocked:
Used space: 76.8 GB
Free space: 34.5 GB
Capacity: 111 GB
How is it possible that the operating system only occupies 77 GB?
please give me a hand.
Thanks in advance
Lio
PS sorry for my bad english....

How to create a Windows 8 All In One installer
location:

August 18, 2012
Has anyone had any luck creating an all in one installer? I used DISM and combined all the x86 and x64 flavors into one install.wim file but when I boot it is asking for a serial. I want it to be like Windows 7 where it would list all the flavors let you select then depending on the flavor it would ask for a key or continue on.
By the way who knew there would be 16 different install options???
Windows 8 x86 & x64
Windows 8 N x86 & x64
Windows 8 Pro x86 & x64
Windows 8 Pro N x86 & x64
Windows 8 Pro VL x86 & x64
Windows 8 Pro N VL x86 & x64
Windows 8 Ent x86 & x64
Windows 8 Ent N x86 & x64
I also have created clg files for each type so 8 in all, each covers both x86 and x64. But it still wants a se

How to cancel a Windows 8 Market Place App purchase?
location:
microsoft.com - date:
October 29, 2012
Not sure if Microsoft is aware that when active users are in the Market Place app, and there is a price change, the user is not notified of the price until after the installation process starts.
I have had this happen to me when an application I was going to install, moves from a FREE application to a PAID application, the user is badly notified of this. Firstly the option is INSTALL not to buy, the next screen was requesting to update payment details...
with no information about cost occured. The a blue dialog box states that there has been a price change, and to refresh (with an OK as a reply), then the next screen states that it was PURCHASED and starts to install. So without being told the application

Another reason to use a local account rather than a Microsoft Account. Looks like you wind up on Microsoft's mailing list with a Microsoft Account.
