You can limit the space people can use on a shared PC, to prevent a single person from filling up the drive. In this guide, we show you how.
One of the many great features of Windows 10 is the ability to create multiple accounts to share a computer with other people. Thanks to this feature, everyone can have a space they can call their own with custom settings and separate files.
The only issue is that users have unlimited access to the available space on the hard drive to store as many files as they want, and they don't have storage limitations to install apps and games, which can cause your device to run out of space quickly.
In order to overcome this problem, Windows 10 includes a handy feature known as "Quota," which allows you to control and manage the space users can use to prevent a single person from filling up the hard drive and leaving no space for anyone else.
