disk usage

I just now noticed it says under Hard Disk OS(C:) 169GB free of 684 GB. I have no clue how much free space I have left, is 168 GB not very much space? Also is there any way to free up. I did delete all my Downloaded videos, I know they were taking alot of space, that is when it said 169GB...

Ever since I got a new hard drive and installed a fresh copy of windows 8.1, I have been having issues with my pc's speed. Before both of my usable hard drives inconveniently broke within a week, my pc was just fine in terms of speed. I could run most games I had installed. Nowadays, after...

A couple of weeks ago I got a message that I had virtually no space on my C drive (3 x 40GB SSD in RAID 0). This was a big surprise. I am running Windows 7 PRO. I removed some restore points to get back to 7 GB of free space. I then did a disk cleanup to get to 11 GB. Since then, the free...

I've read a million posts on this, none of which have aided me on the slightest. As seen here, my memory and disk usage are insanely high, with no discernible reason as to why. This is the case essentially all the time, and it's perplexing to say the least. In this screenshot, you can see...

Hello Guys, I am kinda new here. So ,sorry if this is not the right place to post this. I use a Lenovo Y410P which came with windows 8 and I updated it to 10, when it came out. After the update startup is really really slow (windows 8 was slow as well) and I see that the disk usage is 100% all...

This is a problem I've had for months with no solution in sight, even after trying multiples fixes. Windows 10 ran fine for about 3 months prior to this issue, but ever since this happened I haven't gotten it to run properly since. A few months ago, I ran into an issue when I installed an...

Hello everyone, I have a big problem of slowness with my laptop. I checked for viruses and malwares with different programs (nothing detected), then I reset my laptop to factory settings and my computer is still slow. As soon as I open it, more than 80% of the RAM is being used (with not a...

It's a simple problem, but it makes it nearly impossible to take notes in class on my laptop. Every time I open my laptop and it wakes from sleep mode, there are a few processes that will spend the first 3-5 minutes hogging the CPU and disk like crazy, making everything from Chrome to Word slow...
