Freeing Up Hard Drive Space on Windows 10

Is your Windows 10 PC feeling a bit cramped? Don't worry; we've got you covered! Follow these steps to reclaim precious hard drive space and keep your computer running smoothly.

Disk Cleanup

Windows 10 comes with a handy tool called Disk Cleanup that can help you remove temporary files and other unnecessary items. Here's how to use it:

  1. Press Win + S to open the search bar, type "Disk Cleanup," and select the tool.
  2. Choose the drive you want to clean (usually C:), and click OK.
  3. Wait for Disk Cleanup to calculate how much space you can free up.
  4. Select the types of files you want to delete and click OK.
  5. Confirm the deletion, and you're done!

Tips for Maximum Space Savings

  • Delete system files: In Disk Cleanup, click Clean up system files to remove additional system files.
  • Empty the Recycle Bin: Don't forget to check and empty the Recycle Bin for more space.
  • Remove old restore points: In Disk Cleanup, click More Options and then Clean up... under System Restore.

Alternative Methods

If Disk Cleanup isn't enough, consider these alternatives:

  • Storage Sense: Go to Settings > System > Storage and enable Storage Sense to automatically free up space.
  • Uninstall unused apps: Open Settings > Apps and uninstall applications you no longer need.
  • Move files to external storage: Transfer large files to an external drive to create more space on your PC.
