Need help on the release of disk space

Hello world... I've recently refreshed my computer dell laptop and after this process has completed. I see that my c drive is nearly full, as about 20 GB is left out of 150 GB.

The problem is I'm sure that there must be more space on the c drive and when I check the size of all the files its not even 13 GB... so I wonder what's happened on this drive and what's showing I have only 20 GB left... can anyone please help out me with this one

Original title: disk space

I beg of you.

I recommend you get the Windows 8.1 update. It contains all fixes for known problems that have been discovered since 8.0 was released two years before--that's a lot of updates.  It is also necessary to use some functions or applications, more there improvements such as the return of the Start button and other updates to usability for those of us who use our computers with one keyboard and mouse.

  • Before you get the free 8.1 update in the app Store, go to the Panel Office and make sure you have first all updates.  Right click your Start button, choose Control Panel, then go to system and security and click on ' Check for updates ' in the Windows Update section. After they are all installed, restart and check once more there is no rest, then go ahead and start the 8.1 update.

Regarding the cleaning program. There is no 'damage' in run periodically, just keep in mind that it can empty your trash, so be careful if you think you will need to retrieve an item removed recently.  Also consider that some of the elements that it cleans are actually useful to you.  The temporary Internet files for example, are there to speed up your Internet usage.  If you disable the files, all files must be downloaded again, that slows down the speed of your Internet.

  • In general, I recommend not to execute the cleaning manually program and allow for automatic maintenance of Windows to take care of it for you. The default automatic maintenance works at 03:00 once a week, but you can change that in the center of the Action.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    Hello everyone!

    I need help in the Organization of my startup list:

    ItSecMng (although I have disabled the Bluetooth Manager to run when starting from this point still remains in the startup)
    Agent of filtering of Audio Conexant high definition (what is this program? Do I really need to start?)
    TOSHIBA Power Saver

    So, my friends. Could you give a valuable suggestion whether or not it is prudent to disable startup above entries? I want to speed up my laptop at the highest possible level.

    Thanks a lot for your time!

    Kind regards
    Osman.

    My laptop:

    Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-15V (PSAJ5E) => NOT have multimedia keys except the FN keys.

    > Toshiba Button support (why should I this program if my laptop doesn't have multimedia keys? OR maybe this program for something else?)
    You can disable it. If your mobile phone does not support the multimedia buttons then this tool is useless.

    > ItSecMng (although I have disabled the Bluetooth Manager to run when starting from this point still remains in the startup)
    I don't know what would make this process, but you can disable this in msconfig-> tab start Mr. If it would take in the future, then you could turn it on again.

    > Agent of filtering the Conexant high definition Audio (what is this program? Do I really need to start?)
    I think that this is necessary. It could improve your audio

    > Toshiba Power Saver
    This is important. It s an additional saving of Toshiba option for Win 7

    > Toshiba Flash Cards
    This tool controls the FN keys.

    > RAID Event Monitor
    Hmm so you don t have two hard disks, then you can try to disable it too.

  • Error message Microsoft Word "Word could not create the work file. Check the amount of disk space on your startup disk. »

    I have a MacBook Pro, retina 13inch OS X el Capitan Version 10.11.1 with 16 GB of memory. It's brand new and I have recently installed Microsoft Word/Powerpoint etc. a disc that I bought a few years to my previous MacBook. It seems to work very well, but whenever I want to open a word document a message comes up saying "Word could not create the work file. Check the amount of disk space on your startup disk '. However, once I click 'OK' this message disappears and my word file opens without a problem. I have 16 GB of memory on this laptop and it's new I have not reached anywhere near the maximum amount of storage so I'm puzzled as to what this message means. How can I avoid that this message popping up everytime I open Microsoft Word? Any help would be appreciated!

    This has nothing to do with memory - it's the SSD. Word tries to create a temporary file to use as a backup if the program crashes while you are working. First, run the Microsoft Update program to see if there are updates you have missed. Second, Microsoft currently supports only versions 2011 and 2016, so if yours is older, you should consider the upgrade. Thirdly, I suspect that the temporary file is not get created so that you have fewer cancellations (maybe any) and that if the program crashes you have to restore.

If you have not purchased a full license, you should be the link for the purchase of Ms. You can also buy Office 2007 locally(probably cheaper) and just use him license key to activate your preinstalled version.

    Hello need help with the opacity mask. I hope someone out there can help

    I inherited a logo that appears to use a Logo of OM has a shape with a grad. This grad at first sight is not used in the Grad scheme and there is not editable.  Looking at the transparency palette I find an OM (pic1) output option. If I choose what the grad on separates it from the page of the form, that is from there I can change/remove as required (Note2).

    However, sometimes (he did no change), I'll be back to the same original form and output option is grayed out and is no longer available. Or I go to the similar shape that has the same treatment and I can't go out OM (pic3)

    The only difference is the thumbnail in the transparency palette, which is strong in pic1 and rated on pic3. What Miss me?    I'm not clear what the advantage is simply OM using the Grad palette to apply a grad in my form, but until I can get rid of OM who is there, I can't comfortably apply to the grad I want.

    The white gradient LHS I have no problem with. I choose fortunately only and each time get the possibility of release of OM.

    Screen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.26.48.pngScreen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.00.10.pngScreen Shot 2015-08-06 at 12.01.16.png

    The other thing weird. When I select the white gradient. Sometimes, the exit option is in the palette without going through the drop-down list (Fig 4).

    Other times seems not that OM has already been applied, because the palette gives me the ability to mask rather than liberation (5 photos). Until I go to the drop down and then I find Release is an option after all.

    What is the difference here?   Not much of a problem, because either way I can release OM to be able to change the grad.

    The file is passed through several hands and play anywhere to try to resolve issues, and many stops and save slot, so something along the line was of course done a logo and not the other because of the difference, but I can't for the life of me see what that.
