Does anyone know how I get more disk space?

[slick102223]

I'm trying to install a game but it said that I didn't have enough space so I uninstalled all my other games but I still didn't have enough.

You can't make disk space magically appear. You have to either make more room or look into upgrading the one you currently have.

For starters, stop doing things blindly. How much space do you have and how much space is needed? Usually, it's better to first assess the situation and then act, instead of acting first and foremost.

If everything else fails, install a bigger SSD in your PC.

The game needs 228.24 GB what I have available is 102.00 GB.
I don't know what else to do.

While I told you one thing that you could do, what game needs 228 GB? Please name the game.

Ark Survival Evolved

According to it's store page, it's more like 60 GB. Weird...
Anyway, how large is your disk in the first place? Meaning is making space even a valid option.

Let's hope for the best and assume you answered my question.
If your disk is 148 GB in total, then there's obviously no way for a 200 GB game to fit there. Meaning you need to get another disk. Buy yourself a SATA SSD and install it. 0,5 TB SATA SSDs are only slightly more expensive than HDDs (if at all) and installing them is actually pretty easy, if you possess basic motoric skills.

When I bought the game I bought it in a bundle pack for the game if that helps.

If you own the DLC that comes with ARK, it's very likely that it requires that much space. It's about the biggest game in terms of disk space required.

How exactly is that supposed to help? You need a bigger disk!

[rawWwRrr]

Keep in mind that not only does it require that much space to install, but any time it updates it will need about 100-150GB of free space to patch files for the update. It's notorious for its disk space requirements.

You could try disabling few DLC's to reduce the required space.

How do I do that?

With only 100GB of free space left on a 150GB drive, the base *may* install but the very first time it updates it won't work as there won't be enough overhead left to allow the update to download and patch files. Then it won't launch anymore.

My advice for OP is to either research upgrading their drive space, or refund the game until they have the means to upgrade.
