I have recently bought a Samsung ativ book 9 lite. Generally I'm happy with it but not at all with the bad usage of the disk space it has. It is supposed to have 128GB but:
1) It has a recover partition which takes up to 18GB (I think I should remove this one, what do you think of this?).
2) Windows folder takes up to 20GB (even before installing any update). Winsxs folder takes almost 10GB.
So finally, after this I have just 70GB left from the 128GB. So well, at this point I have made my research in order to gain space from the windows folder without good results. I have tried to run the commands specified here but it didn't work. One of the commands was running for hours and it wasn't able to finish (or I didn't give it enough time). Anyway, I have been working with different OSs and I don't remember they were as space consuming as this one looks like.
Do you have any hint on how I could proceed to gain some more space?. Thanks in advance!
