Win8 how to view Metro application size

  
For Win8, Surface users, downloading applications from the Windows Store is very convenient. However, since the Win8 tablet interface does not support right-click viewing of file sizes, we are not aware of the amount of hard disk space occupied by installed applications, which creates some minor barriers to management applications. So, where should we go to see the application size? Below, I will introduce a simple method.

























First, through the Charm column on the right, go to “change computer settings"

Available storage
Second, in the "General", find "Allow storage", which will show the free space on your computer. Click “View app size" to see the amount of hard drive space occupied by the installed app.

View application size
In these applications, you can definitely find some "volume" large but not commonly used applications. You can choose to uninstall the app to free up system space. This little feature is more practical for Surface users.
There are more than 30,000 applications in the Windows Store, greatly increasing the user's choice, so eliminate those applications that are useless, and there have been better choices in the Win8 app store!

Fixed to the start screen
In Win8, the icons in every traditional desktop can be solidified into the Metro interface. Method 1: From the traditional desktop into the file manager, right click on the "computer" icon and select “fix to the start screen”.






































Select “Fix to the start screen”. Need to remind everyone: the beginning of the interface "computer" will still open from the traditional interface, we just created a portal for the "My Computer" in the Metro interface.
