That's how Windows 10 is.  When you download new programs, make sure they install to your mass storage if you can.  Also, you can move your downloads, documents and photo folders to the hard drive to save space.

The feature to install Windows Apps (Universal apps) location to a different drive or SD card, has been postpone from the release version of Windows 10. (Probably had bugs and decided to remove it as they could not fix them in time. That is my guess).

128GB should be plenty however for your OS and apps, and even desktop application.
