How can I tell how much available memory I have left on my laptop?

Question

I know there's a way to do this, but I've forgotten. I have a Toshiba, if that matters.

Answer 1

I believe you are talking about hard drive space, correct?

If so, open "My Computer" then right click on your C: drive and click Properties and you will see the information.

Answer 2

By memory, do you mean hard drive space? If so, go to a window explorer window, or to My Computer. If C is your drive letter (it usually is by default), right click on the "local disk " or "C" icon, and select properties. A window should pop up showing a graphical and literal representation of how much space you have left. If you are at an explorer window and don't see your local disk icon, try pressing the "up" button until you can. It's the one that show a folder with a green arrow pointing up, near the top by the menu. If you really meant memory, it's dynamic, and it depends on how many applications you have open, etc. Hope this helps.
