Inspirion 14-3452 out of memory; can't update

Did you try running Disk Cleanup (clean up system files) to free up space? How about CCleaner? Removed any unwanted or unused programs? Did you insert a USB flash drive or a memory card with enough space for temporary setup files when setup asks for it?

Unfortunately, your problem is very common. Assuming that you have 32 gigabytes of internal storage, there is usually not enough room available for personal files, additional programs or major Windows updates to co-exist. Windows 10 itself takes up close to 20 GB, leaving around 10 GB of available space. If you have pictures and/or videos on your computer or very large programs installed, then free space really becomes an issue. You can move your personal files to a SD card and just leave the SD card inserted all the time for additional space.

Also, your computer looks very similar to my neighbor's, and he too has the same problem. All I know is that I tried to explore upgrade options for him, and even though he has a spot to install a 2.5" hard drive or SSD, there is (a) no caddy tray that allows you in mount the drive and (b) no SATA port soldered on the motherboard. Basically, it's what I call a tablet disguised as a laptop.

Yes it is sad that all reputable companies sold something that has NO HDD or SSD that can be upgraded.

There are a few options but it takes some time and experience???

I am an "Expert" on the HP forum and a member has worked out a few options.

It may be for an HP but the process is the same.

Good luck,
