How do I remove about 20gb worth of hard drive space? It's required for a Windows upgrade. I've tried all the cache cleaning programs including the one installed on Windows.
Free a lot of space on hard drives? |

Use this and see what's taking up a lot of space.
https://windirstat.info/ I'm assuming you've tried removing applications that you're not using? (Aug 22, 2016 04:01 PM)archangel.dmitry Wrote: Delete not needed restore points. This ^^ in CCleaner go to tools>restore and you delete all but the most recent point. (Aug 22, 2016 04:07 PM)Coton Pker Wrote: you can probably also delete a bunch of the %TEMP% dir. Temp files are cleaned with CCleaner cleaner. (Aug 22, 2016 03:25 PM)ℳint Wrote: How do I remove about 20gb worth of hard drive space? It's required for a Windows upgrade.
