Jim, Good thought, crossed my mind as well. Just tried and got the same message that I need 6 GB of space to proceed. Looks to me like the only solution is to move that restore partition onto the memory card and then expand the primary partition to make room. For the little I use this thing, not sure it is worth doing as the tablet already has Windows 8.1 on it and I'm comfortable with that. Also, only use this thing 2-3 times a year when traveling. I mainly just wanted to give Windows 10 a play before upgrading my main Windows 7 desktop unit.

Put the Windows media creation tool on your micro memory card, try running it, from there. See if this will do the trick. good luck. -----Original Message----- From: Alan Robbins Sent: Tuesday, September 15, 2015 9:05 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Win 10 upgrade dilemma Dave, Not sure how I would connect that to the tablet as it only has a microUSB connector for the power cable. Could I run that tool from the 64 GB micro SD card I installed?

I have a Dell Venue Pro 8 32 GB tablet. I followed all upgrade advice FS had on their website regarding JAWS. I have downloaded the media creation tool and when I run it to install the upgrade on my tablet, I get the message to free up additional space as the upgrade needs 6 GB of space. I only have just under 4GB available. Not much else I can do to free up room. Dell has a restore partition that takes up 10 GB and I have MS Office installed along with JAWS and that is about it. I installed a 64 GB micro SD card in the expansion slot hoping some of that could be used, but no go. Thought on getting rid of or moving that hidden partition? Any ideas folks have would be appreciated. I know some folks on this list have the same tablet so wonder how they are getting around this?
