two things that worked for me -
1) are you using exchange? you can set the local to only save 6 months or so and the rest on the server. I also set up an auto archive to a different exchange account after 2 years.
2) On my newest computer I moved the OST file to my HDD and just have the program on the SSD. it doesn't seem to have slowed anything down, and I don't have to worry about filling up the SSD

another option would be to upgrade to a 500 gb ssd

How about something like this?

You could even forward the emails yourself, and then delete the emails/attachments so your outlook file doesn't get so huge

Way too tedious. Th problem is not my outlook size. Most of that is on HD not SSD. The issue is the now 38 gb index

Index file now at 103 GB 769000 items indexed and 133000 remaining.

With the index file now at 112gb it is now saying that there is insufficient disk space to continue indexing with the stats about as above.

Interestingly it is shrinking itself now and is down to 30gb with 40k left.

Which email provider are you using? I sync Outlook for 6 months, and since I use G-suite I search older emails via Gmail.

I also have Google Drive for PC where everything gets saved, and can access the files from Outlook as well

G-suite is for businesses, but from you reply it seems like you're not using it anyhow

I connect my Laptop to a monitor with an HDMI and have in the past have been able to hear audio from the monitor speaker. I'm still able to hear audio by plugging in headphones into the monitor, but can't her from the monitor itself. Any clue what might be wrong?

No speaker selection option on the PC?

I manually copied the entire contents of Internal Storage of an Android tablet to my laptop. On the tablet it's 1.62GB and on the laptop it's 3.25. What's happening?

There's 1 extra file on the laptop, and it's exactly double the amount of data as the tablet, so I'm guessing that there's 1 large .zip type file that has the full contents in it (perhaps a backup)..
