• My computer is running out of hard drive space

  So I got a message in the Photos saying that it optimize the photos stored on my computer and let the full resolution of those in the cloud.

  But my computer is still only 3 GB of free hard drive so it runs slowly.  How to make Photos to optimize better so that I have more like 10 GB of free hard drive?

  Thank you

  Optimal use of this computer could be a problem with only 3 GB left.3GB is there anything that will adjust upward for the swap disk cache. Even 10 GB on a hard drive to boot will really push it and it is not realistic to expect a computer to perform optimally with 10 GB of space. HD is used by the computer for permanent and temporary files and space can fill up very quickly.

  Delete some files on your hard drive or put your images on an external drive.

  Optimization of images with either change the format or quality. If you ok with losing than to convert them, otherwise you get a cheap external. A 1 TB USB 3 external drive can go less than 75 $us and could the investments needed at this stage.

• I lose a hard drive space every day on my Windows 7 computer

  My computer is barely a month.  I only put on about 6 programs, all with small footprints.  I transferred to about 70 GB of files.  I know that the system uses the memory out of the box, but even with all that taken into account, that I can't take into account more than 40 GB of space and the amount increases every day.

  I was check and each day I lose a few GB of hard drive space.  Where's he going?  There is much info on Vista and some of its features that uses a hard disk space, I guess than some that apply to Windows 7.  But seriously, for example I lost 2GB between yesterday and today, and I have absolutely nothing to the computer.

  Clean temporary files and use Disk Cleanup to reclaim space.  But it is usually minimal and it does not take into account what I lose.  I have the system to restore all of the space to a fairly small percentage.  In summary, I think I have everything correct in order to minimize the use of hard drive, but the space is to be consumed at an alarming rate.  No virus, MSE is on the system and did not find a thing.

  Where the hell the space continues?  I am glad that I have a large hard drive, so there is move the room, but it's ridiculous to have disk space available endangered on its own.  I don't know that it's associated BONE.  Thoughts?

• Many disappear from the hard drive space

  Hello

  Recently I factory reset my computer and proceeded to put some of my old files save them on the computer. Some of the files were games, but I realized that I couldn't play without resettlement of their records. I was unable to uninstall properly an any of them, so I just deleted files - but I noticed after I had deleted the files that I had lost more (about 30-40 GB worth) hard disk space

  When I went to reinstall these games of their records, I found that they were taking about three times as much space as they said they would be (for example, it said it would take up to about 3.5 GB of space, but it ended up taking 11 concerts of my DD)

  Since then, I've lost an another 30 concerts without doing anything.

  Is there a reason for this? I scanned my computer for any sort of malware with two different anti virus systems, and they all come in white. I have two firewalls running as well, so I highly doubt that it is malware.

  I managed to solve the problem.

  System Restore has been fixed to raise as much as 50% of my hard drive space. I have since lowered to a more reasonable amount and have obtained a large part of the rear of space SD, and I at least know where the rest. Thank you very much for the help.

  Hi Wally, the hard disk OS X and all of your files. Get a case for your reader, and it backs up. Try OWC

  Always keep your Mac backed up on an external drive with Time Machine or utility of cloning like SuperDuperor double clone.

  Try eBay for the adapter.

  Sorry, you can not. A CRC error means that there is a serious problem with your drive. You need to replace it.

• My (C) hard drive space becomes low. What can I do?

  Hello

  My Windows Update is set to the recommended level. (C) hard drive space becomes low and other drives (E, F, G) have enough space. What happens if the C drive space comes to level down while Windows Update is taking place. The minimum amount of space have stand to drive C? How to manage the process?

  Your cooperation will be appreciated.

  Thanks & Rgds,

  You really need to think about 15%, a minimum of free space on the disk.

  Your 1st task is to try to identify the cause of the lack of space. Things like music, photos and especially video may gradually creep on you.

  TreeSize here is quite useful to work where space is gone.

  Libraries can be moved. Expand 1st level of etiquette in the left pane to display the top folder and right-click. The location of the tab, you can change the location of one of the empty discs and it will copy all files when you click on move. If you have more than one user, it is best to create a record of the user for each group and then do it for each of them. Don't forget to check the new location is included in all of the backups.

  Also use disk cleanup too. Open the computer, right click on the C drive, and then click Properties. Click Disk Cleanup. For more options in the result, click on the option of system files and see what you can get rid of.

  I find no windows.old file. (Enabled hidden files)

  Only I have a disc ssd 60gig and want the missing 35gig kindly returned to use.

  Check the system restore to see how much disk space it uses:

  Click Start

  Right click on computer

  Click on properties

  Click on advanced system settings

  Click on the System Protection

  Click on configure

  Adjust the amount of disk space allocated to system restore.

  In addition, the amount of RAM you have installed, it will take more disk space for paging, hibernation, and dump files.

• Is there a reason to save the original NEF files after import for the LR in the form of files 'convert to DNG?  Is there a reason to save the two versions?  The NAVE seems to have no further use other than too much hard drive space.

  Is there a reason to save the original NEF files after import for the LR in the form of files 'convert to DNG?  Why save versions when the DNG is the original and the NAVE seems to just take remote hard drive space?

  I see no reason to keep them, they take a lot of space, one of the reasons to convert to DNG is that they are almost 20% smaller than the ships.

  But it is of course your choice...

• Bridge takes a lot of hard drive space

  Hello world

  IM new to this forum and new also for Photoshop CS6 and everything that surounds it.

  I had a small question which may be simple to you guys but its been annoys me a bit

  I work with bridge this morning and import pictures in it. Then I looked at my hard drive space and he was down about 5 GB. I do not change or do anything special, just imported photos so it would be easier when I start using PS CS6. Is it normal when I import images that it takes up little space on my hard drive. I thought that the bridge was used only to create a link between my photo file and Psalm I then tried to remove the images in Bridge to see if space would come back available, but it didn't. Anyone? Please help me to answer my questions?

  Thank you

  PS: I have 164 GB of free space on my hard drive, if it helps. Thanks again

  What you see is normal.  Once you import pictures Bridge generates a cache file, then you can disply a thumbnail.  Delete the picture will still retain the thumbnail, which is the function of compact cache.

  The options you choose depend on the size of the cache.   Embedded thumbnails takes less space.  If you check generate and save previews of 100% that will really increase the size of the cache folder.

  See this thread for more information on the cache.  http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1094509?TSTART=0

• How to get out a failed upgrade of El Capitan caused by the problems of hard drive space

  Upgrade to El Capitan on a MBAir (2010).  Upgrade failed near the end due to a problem of hard disk space.  Now stuck between choosing the language screen and the warning message upgrade and not can not go out to clear space on the hard drive.  Suggestions would be welcome.

  You are able to restart on your old system or you are unable to do so? You can start in the Recovery HD? You have a recent backup?

  If you are unable to start altogether due to lack of space, then you will be forced to erase the disk and restore of OS X from scratch.

  You can try to start HD recovery and to do this:

  Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

  HD recovery start: restart the computer after the ring, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until the menu screen appears.

  Repair the hard drive and permissions: at startup, select in the main menu disk utility. Repair hard disk and permissions as follows.

  When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. Disk utility charges and select Macintosh HD entry indented from the list on the left.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait until the operation is complete, then quit disk utility and return to the main menu.

  Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than Wi - Fi and more reliable.
