Hi Ayman Jean-Claude,

1. you are running Windows vista on the computer?

2. how much free disk space you have after install vista sp2?

There is a possiblity that the Windows vista sp2 installation files are always available on the computer that occupies disk space.

Free space on the disk can be stored by running the disk cleanup on the pilot tool and check.

1. open Disk Cleanup by clicking the Start button, all programs, Accessories, clicking System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.

2. in the Disk Cleanup Options dialog box, choose whether you want to clean your own files only or all files on the computer. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

3. If the Disk Cleanup: drive selection dialog box appears, select the hard disk you want to clean, and then click OK.

4. click the Disk Cleanup tab and select the check boxes for files that you want to remove.

5. When you have finished select the files that you want to remove, click OK, and then click delete files to confirm the operation. Disk Cleanup on delete all unnecessary files from your computer.

    Not enough space for which drive? This is a warning most likely a not enough space on the recovery partition.

    This occurs when Windows Backup is used without a dedicated external hard drive. Is that what you did?

    If so, access the recovery partition and delete all backups that you sent to there.

    Then you get an external hard drive and backup on it.

  • TEMPRO v2 - changing the threshold of disk space alert

    Hello

    I downloaded and installed Tempro v2 on a Satellite A200. It works well.

    However, tempro was a problem that was present in version 1.x.

    Disk space alert low value trigger, much, much too early to the disk space of 25% on any partition. On a modern drive, it is around 15 GB. It's average, far too early to say a problem. I swiched disable this alert - I don't want to do. There seems to be no way (that I can find) to activate this alert to raise to a more reasonable value - 10% left of disk space or a given amount of space left - say 2 GB.

    Y at - it a fix for this or have I missed how to set this value, because I don't want to run without knowing that I'm under low disk space? This alert to 25% is irritating.

    Thank you

    Clive

    Hello

    I don t think you can change this value or parameters
    TEMPRO sends notifications about the status of the entire HARD disk and it is why you received this message.

    I have this tool on my laptop too but didn t find settings that would disable the notification on simple partitions on the HARD drive

    How to clean my disk overloaded space in C drive?  Almost complete.  Says "low disk space".  Thank you in advance.

    I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, and place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.

    Follow a few basic maintenance note.

    1.5 the tool provided in Windows to remove unwanted temporary files is disk cleanup. To access this tool select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. You must then run Disk Defragmenter.

    1.6 using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before that the error occurred initially, do not use this option.

    1.7. If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.

    1.8. a better alternative program to disk cleanup is cCleaner. The freeware version works well for a home user and must be downloaded from Piriform program provider:
    http://www.CCleaner.com/download

    1.9. When you open cCleaner you will see four large icons to the left of the window. Here's cleaner them, registry, tools, and Options. For routine maintenance, you normally acceding Cleaner (this is not the mentioned registry cleaner later). When using for the first time only, you can accept the default settings.

    1.10. some observations on the parameters. On my computer, I do not have the boxes before the passwords saved selected. In a less secure environment, you could check this option and set cCleaner to run automatically when the computer starts. You also cannot check the boxes in front of shortcuts from the Start Menu, desktop shortcuts and historical form. You must check the boxes according to your needs. Bad first time options causes irritating no disasters.

    1.11. the second icon that you see when you open cCleaner's registry. A reserve many experienced users have about cCleaner, it's that it comes with a registry cleaner. This tool should not be used. By using a registry cleaner, but it is the case, provides significant benefits and there is always the risk of creating insoluble system errors, which cannot be resolved by reinstalling the operating system and all that that implies. You will avoid any possible problem of not not by clicking on the Save icon.

    1.12 the third icon that you see when you open cCleaner is tools. If you click this icon, it gives you access a routine plus service options. The first two tools are uninstalled and commissioning. I do not use these tools, preferring to use other software options. The third tool is the restoration of the system, which is covered in the next paragraph. The fourth tool is Wiper Drive and you will find reviews about this tool later

    1.13 removing the system restore points can be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments. This makes it easier to hold the restore points for long periods without keeping large unwanted files, whose inflexible approach to disk cleanup fails to offer.

    1.14. you can't remove the last restore point using the cleaning disc or cCleaner. If the last restore point contains malicious software, you can turn off and then turn on system restore. This has the disadvantage that restore all points are removed when you want to keep more restore points that are not infected. How to get round this problem is to create a new restore point when you are satisfied with your computer is free of malware and then remove the infected restore point.

    1.15. in normal circumstances, you probably rarely need to use Driver wiper. However, there are situations like if you gave the computer to someone else, then the tool may be useful. Please note that the wiper Drive, opening, generates a warning message, which should not be dismissed lightly. Using wiper Drive for the wrong reason could have serious consequences.

    1.16 the fourth icon is labeled Options. Many configuration options are available here. You can configure cCleaner to run when start you but remember that this will slow down the boot. Another setting allows you to include or exclude cookies. Yet another allows files named to exclude.

  • Low disk space problem

    This PC runs Windows 7 Pro.  Its hard drive has two primary partitions: drive system (C :) and FACTORY_IMAGE (d).  The latter has a capacity of 12,083,933,760 bytes, which only 6 729 728 bytes are not used.  As a result, this warning "low disk space.  You run lack of space on FACTORY_IMAGE (d) "continues to appear every few minutes.  I'm sick and tired of this nagging fairly quickly.

    I used Windows installation partitioning to shrink C:.  However, when I tried to expand D:, the option is grayed out.  Is there a setting that I could change to stop the nagging?  It would be dangerous to use a 3 rd-party utility to expand D:?

    This PC was given without an installation disk, so I have to be careful with this recovery partition.

    4. Select the policy under CurrentVersionkey.

    5. In the registry editor menu, select change, then New, then finally by key.

    6. After the key is created under the policy, it will be initially appointed new key #1.

      Change the name of the key to Explorer by typing exactly as shown and then hit the key entry .

    7. With the new key, Explorer, still selected, choose Edit, followed by new, then finally the DWORD (32 bit).

    8. Once the DWORD value is created under Explorer, it will be initially named new value #1.

      Change the name of the DWORD NoLowDiskSpaceChecks typing it exactly as shown and then hit the key entry .

    9. Right-click on the new NoLowDiskSpaceChecks DWORD you just created and clickEdit.

    Hello

    I also see your message here. Please continue posting in the same thread.

    A volume must have at least 15% free space for disk defragmentation Defragment completely and properly. Disk Defragmenter uses this space as a sorting for the fragments of files box. If a volume has less than 15% free space, Disk Defragmenter defragment only partially. To increase the free space on a volume, remove unnecessary files or move them to another disk.
