Reply:thanks Report It

Reply:I recommend CCleaner, a free utility that cleans your hard drive automatically. You can find it easily on Google.
Reply:stay away from the "windows" and "Program Files" folder. When i clean up my computer, i uninstall any programs i no longer use and then run the "Disk Cleanup" utility from the HDD properties list. Another thing that takes up A LOT of HDD space is your system restore backups. I don't remember the location of the option, but you can tell the computer to remove all but the last system restore. On my 120 GB laptop HDD this removed 15Gb of unwanted restore files.
Reply:It would be easier to answer this if I knew what op sys you were using.


You can empty your (C:\windows\temp) folder.


you can click on:


start/programs/system tools/Disk Cleanup.


these shoul free up some space for you.

Reply:hey my opinion is dont delete anything in ur c drive because how do u know what to delete
Reply:dont delete anything from the windows folder, i usually go into program files and find stuff in there that i might not use anymore and delete it. i also clear out my documents, also use the disc clean up wizard on the hard disk, should be located in acessories under system utilities or oyu can right-click your c: drive and go to properties and the tools tab.
