Hi there,
A friend of mine recently upgraded to Windows 10. The thing is, it's taking a massive amount of space, 57ish GB on a 100GB hard drive.
This seems massively high. How can I can save up space?
I've already done the basics:
1) Check tools and deleted your standard recommended files (temp. files, system back ups etc.) but that only bought a few gigs
2) Checked installed programs, nothing egregious there. The program files folders (normal and x86) are only ~10gb each
3) I did a computer search for "windows.old" to see if it kept the old backups, but got no hits
The issue seems at the OS level. The c:/windows folder itself has over 57gb.
Anything I can do to save space?
