How can I free up disk space? I continue to have alerted it is low

The original title: disk space

I get a message that my disk space is insufficient, but when I go in files deleat it says there are no files, how free of disk space?

> but when I go into the files deleat it says there is no files...

Looks like you're tailking on drive D:, your recovery disk. Yes?

(If you went ot C: drive tries to delete files, you wiould NOT have received message "here ya no files".)

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... not for nothing is add or remove anything from him.

Have you been using the D drive and for scheduled backups of file, or use it to store other programs and files?
If this is the case, you call the manufacturer of the computer, tell them the situation...

1. ask for a set of recovery DVD (if you have not done a game initially). It is used to re - install Vista from it in case of system crash.
2. ask how to remove backup files or elements that are NOT supposed to be there.
They created the recovery partition, they know how to take care of it.
Let them teach how you to.

    Every few minutes the message:

    "To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages.  This can take up to a few minutes. »

    It is irrelevant for two reasons:

    (1) I do not use Outlook Express and have therefore no messages to be compacted.

    (2) I have not free disk space as I am currently using only five percent of the very large disks.

    Is could someone please tell me how I get rid of this very irritating message.

    Try to reset the compact County in the registry:

    1. Start the registry editor.
    2. Open this key:

      \Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\ {identity}

      where the identity is a string of letters, numbers, and dashes.

    3. The value of Compact Check Count to 0.
    4. Close the registry editor.

    For more information, see why you should let Outlook Express Compact Messages when it asks you .

  • Get the message "To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages" - No. OE installed

    From the beginning of this week, I get a pop-up message stating "To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages".  This happens when that I start.  The fact is; I do not use Outlook Express or have installed. I checked the Windows components that are installed and checked that.  Once again; He started at the beginning of this week.  There are a few updates that was installed earlier this week also.  No other software has been added.  I use Outlook 2003 and have for years.  Will continue to cancel this message, I would appreciate it if someone could shed some light on how to prevent this message from poping up upward.

    Of course, it has something to with Windows Search as you suggest.
    I open the Indexing Options and found that Outlook Express was listed and checked in an indexed location.
    I took the case off Outlook Express but he left on my Outlook 2003.
    The settings saved and restarted.
    The message poped always upward, but I noticed one thing - search index icon does not appear in the taskbar until I actually recognized the message by choosing .  I waited about a minute and a half before that I did to make sure my boot is complete.  Soon I clicked on cancel search index icon appeared on the system tray.

    How can I free up space on my C drive without dumping files I need to power my computer? I have currently 40,4 GB used and I don't know how or what is out there that I don't need? I have a backup of system restore that takes a lot of space, but Im saying that I can not remove it by a pop-up box that says access denied even though I have since transferred it on my external backup hard drive. Can someone please help? Thank you

    {You can remove C:\{folder-name with lots of letters and numbers like this: 2b4892ncf73d63db37db37}------(these files are temporary and have been created by installers)

    To remove manually restore points, you will need to login to safe mode and change the permissions in the Security tab of the restore point. However, I do not recommend this.

    I noticed that I have two files above in my local disk on my C drive folder.

    I can't find any reference to what they are, and if they are needed.

    Can anyone provide info on them and if they can be removed.

    Also, I get a picture of the record required in my C drive system.

    Hello

    I wouldn't say that allows you to delete any system files that are associated with Windows. You can use Disk Cleanup tool to safely remove files that are not required by windows.
