Hi,
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
- Tip: Although Disk Cleanup is a wonderful built-in tool, it will not completely clean up all of the temporary files on your computer. Other programs that you frequently use such Microsoft Office, Firefox, Chrome, Live Messenger, and hundreds of other programs are not cleaned up with Disk Cleanup (including some Microsoft Corporation programs).
- When I plugged it in my Windows 10 PC, I got a message saying the device is not recognized due to malfunction, and in Device Manager, I was told that Windows had stopped this device because it had reported problems (code 43).
I understand your issue and we will definitely try to help you.
