Cleaning of disk space on the computer

Similar Questions

• Excessive use of disk space on the computer.

  With my machine Win7 with nothing other than the operating system and software support (AV, ZAfirewall, wireless) what's with 32 GB of disk space?

  This machine is alive for 3 weeks.

  Now my XP machine which is alive for years and has all of its updates as well as tons of other software collected over the years and it is only using 8 gig.

  Why the huge difference?

  Oh I agree, it will be never be the same. But it's strange to use 30 + GB on a new installation.

  But absolutely.  You cannot buy a different system and wait until it has the same footprint as a predecssor. It's like saying 'My XP uses more space than BACK!', well duh, BACK fits on a floppy :)

  What is the best way to clean/free up space on my computer?  Even do not know where to look to see how much space I use... Thank you.

  A loss of main surface within each user profile would be penchant of EI for the storage of copies (or much) of almost every web page, your friend has already visited.  Try to reduce the amount of temporary Internet files put in cache, which is huge by default.  I always bring it back to a maximum of 50 MB.  In Internet Explorer, click on tools > Internet Options > general, temporary files > settings.

  Same principle for the Java cache. Start > Control Panel > Java > temporary Internet files > settings.

  The System Volume Information is the folder in restoration of which WinXP system feature stores information to retrieve errors.  By default, Windows XP sets aside a maximum of 12% of the size of the partition to store the information of the System Volume, but the amount of space reserved for this purpose can be adjusted by the user.  Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > System Restore Settings, select the relevant partition and click settings.  If you don't want to use the system at all, restore simply to turn off System Restore (start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system, System Restore settings restore) and restart.  This will remove all your Restore Points, thus freeing up hard disk space.

  An another great space waster may be trash.  By default, it takes up to 10% of the capacity of your hard drive. On today's big hard disks, it's a lot of waste.  It can be set to a lower limit by right clicking the desktop Receycle Bin icon, select Properties, and using the scroll bar to reduce the maximum size to something more reasonable - 1% to 2% should be more than enough space.

• How to clean my disk space on LR mobile? The app on my iPad said: I have 26 GB stored two photos only 149

  How to clean my disk space on LR mobile? The app on my iPad I have 26 GB 27 GB stored. But I only 149 photos in two folders.

  Hi J.Forsberg,

  The images that you have on LR Mobile, they synchronize from LR Office or are they film.

  If they come from LR Desktop then images don't take up much space because they only thumbnails that are created.

  Also please check on your iPad app consumes the most space: https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201656

• Question on the available disk space on the Satellite Z930

  I'm new on this Yes, you can not shoot me down if this is a stupid question. I just bought a new ultrabook Z930. Storage space announced was 125 GB (drive C is only show 100 GB available). Only, I installed MS Office Standard 2007, Norton anti virus and printer drivers.

  However, I now only 65GB of disk space, and I do not think that these applications take 35 GB. I removed the shadow at all.
  Can someone give me some advice please?

  Unfortunately we can not see info exact drive HARD, but maybe you saw something wrong.
  Check please Disk management in the computer management options and you can see all the information base on the HARD disk and each partition of HARD drive.

  I can imagine that this 35 GB is total data backed up on some partition that contains the operating system and all the stuff pre-installed.

  Hi Ericacole

  What version of the bridge are you using and what is your OS?

  Please how much is left in your main hard drive.

  By default, the bridge cache is located at: -.

  C:\Users\Yourname\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CC\Cache (AppData is a hidden folder)

  Note that cache bridge could be very large depending on your use of the product.

• Running out of disk space and the need to remove the old clichés

  I recently joined a company owning an ESXi 4.1.0 (build 260247) server with 4 500GB data warehouses.  One of our servers main database (Ubuntu/Postgres), which uses only one of the data warehouses (4 datastore) has 21GB 465 GB free.  It is currently configured to store all settings, storage and snapshots on this unique data store.  The hard disk is configured as thin.

  The virtual machine has crashed a few days ago, when it ran out of disk space.  We removed a small second partition (which was in the same data store) and cleared space, but we receive extremely weak with only 5% of the data left store.

  I have read many posts and wanted to get the opinion of this community before I move forward.   Because we do not use the 4.1 last I heard some issues using the option "Remove all" that it may require more disk space and others recommended to manually delete snapshots from the closest to the base, but it seems that in this case it can merge the snapshot with the original without freeing all the space.

  We are not all of the snapshots and I'm fine with delete them, but I assure you we will not run out of disk space in the process and complicate things further.

  It is best to manually remove these snapshots starting with the one closest to the base or by using the "Delete All" (or something else)?  In addition, if we go with the manual option, is it possible with the virtual machine upward or do we need to close first?

  Current snapshots:

  

  Current data warehouses associated with VM (really unique using the 4 data store)

  

  Actual files on the data store 4

  

  Thank you

  Brandon

  Welcome to the community,

  After the screenshot, your virtual disk 'arrow_db1.vmdk' stocked thickness!

  With the thick disc service and ESXi 4.1 (the problem with "Delete All" is related to version 4.0), you can run safely "Delete All". However, due to low disk space, I recommend that do you with the virtual machine off. If turned on, a new temporary snapshot will be created, which - according to the workload of the virtual machine - can grow and fill in the data store.

  Due to the size of snapshot and depending on the speed of your storage space, you need to plan a few hours well downtime.

• msg.hbacommon.outOfSpace:There is reached for disk virtual server_1 - 000008.vmdk.  You may be able to continue this session by freeing up disk space on the partition relevant, clicking Retry

  Hello

  
  I've seen various threads on this topic but have not found a resolution or explanation that fits my specific scenario.

  
  I have an ESXi 4 server connected to a San (700 GB) with 1 virtual machine on that (Exchange 2010).   The virtual machine, I created has 4 discs, 50GB for the OS, 2 240 GB for database drives and 1 100 GB drive for newspapers.  In the operating system, each partition shows that I have a lot of space.  Last night, I'm moving on our Exchange 2003 Server mailboxes when all of a sudden I get this error message and stop the server:

  msg.hbacommon.outOfSpace:There is reached for disk virtual server_1 - 000008.vmdk.  You may be able to continue this session by freeing up disk space on the relevant partition, and then click Retry.  Otherwise, click Cancel to end this session.  Try again / Stop

  Retry reproduced the error... Stop stop the virtual machine.

  After I stop, I look in the client vsphere under hardware > storage > SAN where the disc is, and I find that I'm out of space.

  Now, I created multiple snapshots I could fall back on since when I was doing the initial setup of the Exchange.  I deleted a large number of people and got up to about 50 GB of free space showing on the SAN.  However, this number is declining slowly.

  Now, when I created the virtual machine, I configured the ramdisks to be of a certain size already (50 GB, 240 GB, etc.).  How is it that adding data (moving the mailbox) using more space than what is already assigned to the virtual disks?  This will become a huge problem that I have several other mailboxes to move and I thought that I had already allocated to the space I need.

  Why is that when the server is just sitting there.  Available free space decreases?  It has something to do with the type of disc that I created? (Thickness)

  Could someone please explain why this is happening and, more important still, how can I stop it without having to do anything too drastic?

  Hello.

  "I have an ESXi 4 server connected to a San (700 GB) with 1 virtual machine on that (Exchange 2010).   The virtual machine, I created has 4 discs, 50GB for the OS, 2 240 GB for database drives and 1 100 GB drive for newspapers.  In the operating system, each partition shows that I have a lot of space. »

  You have created 630 GB of thick disks on a 700 GB of data store.  Thick disks use this allocated space, no matter what operating system did with them in terms of use. Yes GB 630 thickness = 630 GB used space on the data store.

  "Last night, I'm moving on the mailboxes of our Exchange 2003 server, when all of a sudden I get this error message and stop the server:

  After I stop, I look in the client vsphere under hardware > storage > SAN where the disc is, and I find that I'm out of space. »

  You still snapshots (as you also mentioned) on this virtual machine as well.  With only 70 GB of free space on the data store, the snapshots are defintely going to be able to fill the volume in short order.

  «Now, when I created the virtual machine, I configured the ramdisks to be of a certain size already (50 GB, 240 GB, etc.).»  How is it that adding data (moving the mailbox) using more space than what is already assigned to the virtual disks? »

  When you create the snapshot, a new drive is created that will get all new disk writes.  So to copy a large number of mailboxes will use a lot of space quickly.

  "Why is that when the server is just sitting there."  Available free space decreases?  It has something to do with the type of disc that I created? (Thick) »

  Thick is using space, and convert it into thin disks may help to varying degrees - depending on the amount of writes.  It is above all the snapshots of the origin of the problem, or at least it's where you can focus your attention to solve this.

  "Could someone please explain why this is happening and, more important still, how can I stop it without having to do anything too drastic?"

  Remove snapshots and/or move this virtual machine to a data store greater would be the simpler of two corrections.

  Good luck!

• Free disk space on the C partition

  Separated from this thread.

  I am also having the same problem.  I am running Vista Home Premium SP2.  I was getting close to complete on my drive C (13% free space). I was shocked to see how quickly it filled up, almost as if he did it by himself.  I was downloading a lot so I had no idea how it happened.  I ran each program cleaning and each antivirus that I had to try to make room.  I cleaned up program files deleted a bunch of audio and video files, and it does not seem to do much more of a difference.  I shut down the computer for the night and is returned to him the next morning.  I ran and bought a few flash drives to transfer files more and when I booted up I checked the hard drive and it was back to 48% free space (as it was before).  I have no idea what happened, but so far, it seems to be fixed...?   one of the cleansers I ran also ccleaner.

  Compress files

  There are two ways to compress files in windows. Zip files and built-in file compression. It's built-in file compression. For more information on compression type zip in Start - Help and Support .

  Photos, music and video are already compressed. They can get larger if Windows tries to compress it any further. Also usually a bad idea to compress system files.

• IM always get "low disk space" and the backup file always fails and recovery D

  always get low D recovery and backup disk space the files always cleaning disc fails is no help either

  You are NOT supposed to file backups on ypur recovery Partition D.

  Your recovery partition D is implemented by the manufacturer of your computer in the event of serious problems in your system.
  You use it to restore your system.

  You are NOT supposed to touch it... to not add anything in it or remove anything from him.

  You call the manufacturer of the computer, tell them the situation...

  1. ask for a set of recovery DVD, if you don't have a game yourself. The game is essential to restore your computer in case where it breaks down, and you screwed up the recovery partition which is unusable for recovery.
  2. ask to talk to a technician. Ask the person how to remove backup files or elements that are NOT supposed to be there.
  They, the manufacturer of computer created the recovery partition, they know how to take care of it.
  Let them teach how you to.

  Buy an external hard drive and use it for backups of the file *.

• Backups taking over 130 GB of 160 GB, getting 'Startup Disk Full' and the computer does not. Help!

  I fight for free space on one of my older iMacs work and I am to the point that we cannot use it because the startup disk is full.  I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard OSX Lion (10.7.5) so I could update our video editing software, Adobe Premier.

  We run all our video projects on external hard drives, which does not have the boot disk space and are always good on the erasure of files from the Recycle Bin, audio, photo and video so that they are not get bogged down.  About this Mac shows my 160 GB boot drive contains 8.87 GB Audio, 7.69 GB, 6,49 Photos GB movies, 6.58 GB Apps and a huge 129.34 GB of backups.  I have time Machine backed up on an external hard drive and can't seem to find out where these files are to be removed from the startup disk.

  Turn off time Machine and restart does not clear space.  I have even made the Terminal kill command no matter what auto backups, deleted device and old library version in iTunes, etc.  and I have no backup label appears when I bring up the screen of star wars of the time Machine. I went through so many stages and suggestions to get this machine working again.  I understand these backups are supposed to remove themselves automatically, but why are there still first place if I save on the outside?

  PS I'm not very computer savvy, but I know my way around.  Additional suggestions are appreciated - please let me know if I need to provide more information.

• Bootcamp lost after the new partition (try to increase disk space for the window)

  I have Version OS X El Capitan 10.11.2. Here are the details on my system.

  

  So I tried to increase the space in the partition for the training camp by using disk utility. I created the new partition. But now I can't bootcamp while I restart the computer and hold down the option key. I tried this in the terminal:

  sudo fdisk e/dev/disk0

  p

  setpid 4

  07

  Pavilion 4

  p

  writing or w (tried both)

  There

  But it does not seem to pick up my bootcamp windows. I also tried to restore the mac as early date of backup via external hard drive, but that doesn't seem to help either.

  Here is the screenshot of the output. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  

  Can you post the output of the following Terminal commands?

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.
