What the fuck is going on. I have to do this biannually.
probably backups or system restore points
>windows
Found the problem, thatll be $3.50 rajesh
>old windows versions
>old windows updates
>system restore points
>driver installers
>update installers
just use windirstat/treesize/spacesniffer and figure it out, retard
>Using windows

All you were doing on windows was gaming and facebook anyway, you dont need disk space for that.
>windows 10
there's your problem
>Windows reset my instance
What is this supposed to mean?
This is my SSD with all my regular apps and 60GB worth of games installed to it. (I have more games installed to other drives)
The only time mine got close to full was when I accidentally hit the FRAPS record button when playing DA:O and ended up with a hundred GB worth of videos.

Check for hibernate file to, it's for faggots and takes up as much as your ram size
Nvidia also likes to keep a bunch of 500mb old downloads for it's shit software. You can just delete them
The reset option built into Windows 10. Just gives a perfectly clean install without having to format your HD.
I also use FRAPS, but I don't think I've had it auto record. Could have been the issue though.
Don't have Facebook. Do game a lot. Also use it for work. My work applications are small though.
I used a 128 with win 8.1 for 2 years no issues. Never had less than 40gb space remaining
Maybe you don't watch where you are installing stuff
Try using tree size free
Also windows 10 isn't good at cleaning up after all the bi annual updates like you said. 1903 fresh install will be smaller.
Windirstat better
Spoilers: Most of it is in WinSxS and cannot be deleted without fucking your system over.
>Most of it is in WinSxS
Let's try it out:
>old windows versions
Wrong. C:\Windows.old
>old windows updates
Got one.
>system restore points
Wrong. C:\System Volume Information
>driver installers
Wrong. C:\Windows\Installers
>update installers
Wrong. C:\Windows\Installers
80% wrong. You actually did way better than most Jow Forumsentoomen though.
For the millionth time:
dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup /resetbase
Wiztree scans the whole drive in like 2 seconds. It's better.
arent windows updates in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution ?
>recommending anything but the infinitely superior SpaceSniffer
>you fucking idiots
Just install 9front.
WinDirStat is definitely NOT better. That's old tech. WizTree is blazing fast. Try it user
Ok done, what do I delete? Not orange because that's a game).
Nice image resolution, fagget.
Seems alright to me.
Enable storage sense, user
DISM++ my dude
>He doesn't clean his temp folder
>NTFS
That's a big yikes from me.
You don't look at that, you look at the lists above that boxes.
What am I looking for?
Run Windirstat and stop being such a fucking brainlet. Windows uses not more than 30 gigs at most.
You can't be this serious.
Look at the percentages there, and you can deduce which folders eat your drive.
I-I'm not very tech savvy
Stop hoarding porn
You could be right, but that's still not WinSxS.
>256GB M2
I'm so sorry you're poor user
For the millionth time you fucking freetards
Dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
>Windows
Fuck that ugly lighting effect on the boxes.
>Jow Forums
>if only thee were some way to browse your file system.....
Just stick to using your phone, you;re not smart enough for real computers.
Delete windows.old folder.
yes they are. it is also safe to delete the entire thing
meanwhile gnu/linux normally needs only 5-10
>change how we free up space
note: that "we" does not include you.
>Ok done, what do I delete?
