I had to reinstall the OS. Win10 has the ability to install programs to the SD drive (or an external USB drive) - in Settings/System/Storage . But the OS that was installed on MY laptop didn't have that capability because it was an early version of Win10. To update I had to reinstall the OS using the MS Media Creation Tool - v.easy. That updated Win10 to allow the add'l drive D: and everything was bright & sunny.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Totally agree with you, i got this for my grandson as a starter laptop..its not any good when the updates cant be done. I am going to take it back to Best Buy to see what if anything they can do.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You are right about it being a paperweight. I got around that trouble by using a 32 gig thumb drive before I figured out I had wasted good money on a machine that is best used as a word processor. See if they will credit you for an upgrade machine. Do it soon!
