    I'm at a loss. I'm at 97%. I've deleted almost all my apps and cleared all the cache. installed ES and I don't have any movies nor any installer files and I am literally banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out. I'm almost thinking I need to hard reset my firestick and start over with it? Your video was awesome though - very helpful for those who need it and possibly me in the future. Also super easy to follow. Thank you for taking the time to help those in need :)

    Thank you CC for helping me clean up my fire stick, especially for letting me find ES file explorer, I couldn’t understand why Kodi was taking up so much space, over 2 GB which was giving me only about 600mb free space so when I went to install apps it was coming up not enough space.
    I always cleared the cache and old apk files. I went into the logger section of ES Explorer and discovered that there was hundreds of photos (jpegs) from kodi, I was able to delete them and now the fire stick is around 50 % used. Brilliant

This has happened on 2-3 shows now and at first I was just like, ok, it's annoying but one of those things but now it's happening a lot!!
    My cache looks like it's about 3/4 full with 1.76 GB of space. So frustrating. PS: I also get a "Temporarily unable to load content [4-402]" "Please try again later." Not acceptable. Any ideas what's wrong? Or where I can go for help?

      You should not have done the free trial. You just click the little x. Two totally different processes. If you did the trial, then you will get charged. You have to go into your amazon account and cancel. If you clicked the x to just use the free version, you do nothing

    Just bought a brand new 4K Firestick and it’s already full. Unfortunately, this video didn’t help me because the ES File program won’t work. You can open it, but there is no cursor and when I move the directional pad on the remote, it clicks, but nothing is ever highlighted. If I click enter, something random will open, but I can’t select anything specific. Maybe the program isn’t compatible with the new sticks. Not sure what to do now since there’s no storage available.

    • @CuriosityCafe
      @CuriosityCafe  Год назад

      Factory reset the stick. Then set it up per our videos, and then go into settings and turn off some things. We have videos on both processes. You should have about 4GB free if done properly.

      @@CuriosityCafe i only watched what to do when the Critically Low Storage notice appears. I learned things. I wasted a lot of time clearing cache on apps with 12kb. I should have known not to bother. I downloaded the program to uninstall the program used to add apps. While I followed along and was able to see everything as you went, I discovered nothing left over from downloading any apps. My fire stick has less than 400kb out of the 5.5gb which completely confounds me.

      I would suggest looking at possible downloads and what apps you downloaded that you don't use. I have about 50 apps and over 1gig avail. I however don't use apps like Kodi that drain firestick resources. So look at the size of those apps. If you need help, reach out on patreon. Happy to help

      You just have to find out what's taking the space. All our sticks have over 4 gigs of internal space and 2TB of external space. Firestick is awesome if you watch the videos and learn how to use it. You clearly downloaded something or using an app for something that takes space (example pausing tv, or downloading a movie)

    • @CuriosityCafe

      I'm guessing you are using the older firestick (not the 4k max that moves easier)?
      Click back on your internal and see if it's still there. Then you know. If you need private help, reach out on patreon. Could take hours to figure out what you are doing or not doing

      I just reset my Firestick to new, and of course it automatically downloads the newest update and I was paranoid as hell thinking it would fill up again and I’d be screwed but nope,……all is well and I now have more space now then I did before.
      Not sure why my stick did this but I just turned off automatic updates and will run this stick how it is now and see how it goes.
