Welcome to community forums

 

Have you tried setting the SD card as the default storage?

Any other ideas?

<![CDATA[ Re:Tab M10 pads have run out of memory ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1084/5067971/5278495 You can see from the link provided that it was modified less than a year ago. Can you send a screenshot or photo of the screen you are seeing? Try changing the SD card to portable storage.

<![CDATA[ Re:Tab M10 pads have run out of memory ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1084/5067971/5282230 The image might be old but the options are almost the same especially the Method 2 instruction from the link. Choose format as portable however, backup your files before proceeding just to make sure.
