To make things simpler, you can download an app that will break down storage usage by folder. Windows 10 has a very handy and absurdly hidden feature that lets you view storage usage by folder. The feature is in the Settings app. Go to the System group of settings, and select the Storage tab. If you're in doubt about what a file does, leave it be or look it up. The last thing you want to do is break a program or erase important data.
ISO files, Program installers and temp files are often things you can get rid of. Windows 10's buit-in Disk Cleanup program finds and deletes unnecessary files that the operating system no longer needs.
Here's how to use it. Storage Sense can help you with your disk storage problems. Windows Storage Sense is a tool to aid users to get rid of junk and old files that you might have forgotten to completely delete.
You can also use Windows 10 Storage Sense to automatically save your contents into another drive. It is a simple helpful tool to help you gain more disk hard drive storage if you are running low.
The idea of this is the same as the steps we shared above on how to change the location of Documents, Videos, and etc. But this time, we will use Storage Sense to do it. NOTE , if you have already done the steps above and changed the locations, select only the options here which you have not done yet. This is to avoid conflicts. We have now enabled and tweaked Windows 10 Storage Sense. The configurations and setup we just did will help future contents and files to be managed to minimize the problem on disk storage.
When the search results appear, right-click anywhere blank and select Sort by followed by Size and Descending. The files list can be exported to a text file for you to then actually find those files on your machine. When it launches, type in the following command and hit Enter. You can modify the value in the command so it finds files that you think are large. Open the newly created largefiles. There are a few third-party apps as well that can help you find such files.
Largest Files Finder is one of those apps that help you find the top largest files on your computer. It claims to be only taking a minute to scan drives sized up to GB. Also check your pagefile. Great suggestion, and one I hadn't considered since I haven't thought much about pagefiles since the world switched to SSDs. CCleaner is great too, can def help find some rogue data eating space.
