For updates: Why do I have to have space in Disk C/: when I have everything on another drive?

Just that, why does it have to be thay way? Its literally nonsensical, it doesn't let me update anything at all, it stops

The program manager and 'parts' of programs are installed to the boot drive

During the download and install process temporary files are created on the boot drive... just how much space do you have on your boot [C] drive?

Your operating system needs hard drive space for temp and system files.

You need ample free space on your primary drive so that your operating system can download and unpack files prior to installation.  That's how computers work.
