[SOLVED] Some Games on Secondary HDD show size some don't

[Saint Grimm]

I recently bought a new external HDD, moved all of the stuff off of my secondary internal HDD and started installing games to it instead of my primary drive.


Under the apps section (Windows 10), it shows the size of some of the games, but not all of them. Is this normal?

Assassin's Creed shows up as 2.10mb, AC2 has no size, AC3 remastered shows up as 1.94mb, AC Revelations has no size, etc etc. At first, I assumed that the small size was just shortcuts, start menu stuff, etc and the ones without anything were ones that don't have start menu items

Howver, then I installed AC brotherhood & AC IV. Brotherhood shows up as 7GB, IV shows up as 18.2GB. Are these games taking up space on my primary drive even after being installed to the secondary? Do some games just show their full size and other's don't? What's the deal here?

Moving this to Win10 to see if those experts can assist.

Bcause that function within Windows Settins is woefully inadequate and braindead.

So it's just windows showing it incorrectly?

Mostly, yes.
