To access Storage view, in Windows 10 StartSettings. In the Settings menu that appears, click on System. In the System submenu, click on Storage.

The upper part of Storage view displays the capacity and the amount used of each of the system's storage devices. The lower part of Storage view allows you to select a different destination for a specific type of file.
