I backed up my files in windows10 to one of the two internal drives...what I didn't like is how much space it used..my question is can I undo the backup somehow to get the storage space back?
There's no need to restore.
A backup should be a duplicate of something; A copy of something as it was on X date.
If you restore, you'll be rolling back the files in question to X date.
Now, if you haven't done any work or made any changes then I guess it doesn't matter, but restoring is still an unnecessary process.
If it's a manual backup you made, just delete it.
If it's a backup made by some software suite you should be able to view and delete within the suite.
If you're really not sure or any of this seems confusing, I'd leave it there! Better safe than sorry.
Yes it was automated windows manual backup in backup and security panel....and claimed to be able to see files that are backed up but I don't see them.
