Starting disk full... Surprise!

My boot drive is full, once again... looked for alternatives and have found the same ones that have always been here, then I'm a little crazy. I know you guys are trying to help, but it is a fundamental problem that is unnecessarily difficult to solve. I support that it is never resolved, in fact, but that people just give up and sell their macs... Ill throw my comment here in a separate thread. A few minutes ago, I was quite irritated, but bad post, without modification, and similarly. I hope that someone can help (or should I take on the genius bar?). Here's what I wrote:

Hello world...

This may be the kind of a stupid question since these devices are so incredibly amazing, but, if I plan not to spend money and time 'discover' where he went 59,65 GB of disk space on a computer that has only 60 GB of space all the few months that I have no movies, no data on, etc. should I sell this laptop and get a laptop $ 300 for my course? and I don't want to be sarcastic, really, I don't have, but I LITERALLY can't AFFORD to spend this time in the middle of EACH SEMESTER following the indications on these maps in order to extract a few GB of space, then eventually (after several days) end COMPLETELY REINSTALL os10, just to start the - hell above.

I don't know what to do, man, I'm incredibly *. I have a laptop of no silent apple huge, cheaply from walmart which I don't even think I paid $ 200 for, and Ive never had to delete HIDDEN files to it. If I could bring book 900 laptops that do not match in my book bag to school, so I, at this point... every day people complain about this issue on the forums and the same solutions are quiet... do us them, and the same problems persist.

Yes, if I had the money to buy more memory more and more all the time, so of course, I wouldn't be a problem, but... I get the reasoning for ease of use, fast recovery of files, blah, blah, blah... but everyone should these features? I need to do missions... I need to record books on my HD, I need to take online tests and quizzes... that's about it... I don't want my youtube is faster, I don't want my movies to spread at lightning speed in hd, I don't need my facebook to synchronize my phone with my laptop...

disk cleaners = bandage

Uninstall = incomplete solution, that is to say, a joke

searching for duplicates 'photos' = yes, right

looking for films in double = if watch you movies while studying, youre a ' late

BTW, I would love, love, loooove it if I was, like, some * which was, constantly to corrupt his laptop computer with shitty files and spam and anything else... or, like, a physicist nuclear overclocking the crap out of my computer with complex algorithms and save and removing my HD... or some wannabee Kim Kardashian with selfies, tweets and justin beiber videos all over my poor macbook... I WISH that one of them was the case, because at LEAST I could accuse then something for it! IM less than guy interesting without life that homework is done and that he the of... *.

If anyone is interested...

    Original title: received message 'disk full '. I can see 933 GB of free space when I display the properties of the operating system (c :)) help, please!

    New computer - Dell Inc. 05DN3X (CPU 1), MS Windows 7 64-bit SP1, processor Intel Core i7 930 at 2.80 GHz, 6.00 GB Triple - Channel DDR3 @ 666 MHz, 977 GB Western Digital WDC WD10EALX - 759BA1 (SATA).

    Problem:
    Downloaded a program (32 MB) (SRIM 2011.exe) commonly used to work and tried to extract it to a new folder on the OS (C :) - received message 'disk full'.) I can see 933GB free space when I discover the properties of the operating system (c) - Quota is turned off.

    Have used the program mentioned above (SRIM.exe) several times before using different operating systems XP to work without problem...
    Help, please!
    THX

    Given that this was written in 2011, I'm sure you understood something at this stage. However, the post also has much a views, so I think it might be a persistent problem, so I'll post my solution:

    When I copied the file SRIM - 20xx.e in a folder of SRIM-20xx under Program Files, I had a "Disk full" error when trying to extract the files, even though I had a lot of space on my hard drive and without limits. After a bit of messing around, I like the solution is to move the SRIM-20xx folder on the desktop, and then unpack it. After extraction, which leaves you with a lot of seemingly useless files, double-click CONFIGURATION and the installation will begin appropriate. Installation will create a file under Program Files, there will be no need to make things happen later, simply remove the meantime extract the folder to your desktop computer.

  • DISK FULL ATTENTION, WHY?

    I was getting the "scatch disk full" message so I went and got a new external drive.

    In preferences, the checkbox checked for CS5 to use as the scratch disk is the new external drive.

    That the external drive is only used by CS5 has solved problem work record, but...

    Apparently my C: drive is still used in some way because now I get a warning that they are dangerously running low on space.

    I guess that if the new drive external drive / scratch has been exploited by, I would get the same original message old 'disk full '.

    What happens here? Why so much space requirement when the new external 300 GB dedicated only to CS5?

    If CS5 uses the external drive as a scratch disk, what is it with 35 GB of additional space on the disk, which is my operating system?

    I have 15 GB of file exchange/swapfile cancelled on C:

    The pagefile of 15 GB, 35 GB of free space should get consumed.

    I can understand that they would be a little, used for purposes that no matter what program would use them for, but eat them, I don't understand.

    Thanks for your help

    Multiple level history cancellations are a very useful feature.  With 1/4 terabyte, you should not have to reduce the number of history States.

  • Compensation copy in the Cache of the external drive made bootable disk full - where / how to remove?

    My boot drive became full on my Mac Pro (end of 2013 Quad Core, I installed 64 GB 1866 MGz DD3 RAM), OX El Capitan with 250 GB HD running - it was completely full and buzzing constantly warnings etc - then I found that I had used 192,85 GB on my user folder - I have deleted my desktop, downloads and deleted the Recycle Bin.  Properly, I did a few Google searches on how to move the users folders and files of applications on an external drive using the command sudo Ditto.

    I created a new user account and tried to copy the files using Terminal Server (my files are time machine saved).  I get error messages in the Terminal it produces in series through files, noting that start-up disk is full and no space for copy cache (or something to that effect). So I've put an end to the terminal window.

    I deleted an another 10 GB by removing some applications on my HD that I can re - download.

    I tried the same process and got the same error messages as Terminal run the copy command and put an end to the window of the terminal again.  When I search the two accounts, clear Trash, running MacKeeper I can't find where the 10 GB of cache is stored, or how to remove them and I wonder how many GB of cache I.

    Tips on how to find / erase this interrupted copy hiding in order to free up space, and second, alternative ways to move or copy a large WAD of (192,85 GB) files on an external drive without having to complete the cache on the source drive?

  • How do I get the installation disk full Windows

    My laptop has become very unstable due to 2 anti-virus installed - my expired version wouldn't uninstall and finally my laptop wouldn't start.  I managed to do a repair of windows on a startup disc but a lot of files windows can be fixed when using chkdisc.

    I don't have a windows installation disk when I bought my Acer laptop and I would like to get a copy to do a clean reinstall, please let know us how I can do this.
    Windows Vista Home Premium for my Acer 5535 is an authentic product.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Microsoft does not disks for computers manufactured OEM.

    This is for Acer to do, if they still have any available.

    As you never have a disc, you must have a recovery Partition to reinstall the operating system.

    "How do I restore my computer using the eRecovery Management program outside of Windows?

    http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631

    To start the system recovery:

    1. Restart the computer.
    2. When the Acer logo appears on the screen, press the left Alt and F10 keys.
    3. If you are prompted with a Microsoft Windows splash screen, press the Enter key.
    4. After that the Acer eRecovery Management application is loaded, select your type of restore.
    5. Read the review and then click Next when you are ready.
    6. Click Next to start the restore process. It may take 10 minutes up to an hour fom anywhere to restore.
    7. Once the restore is complete, your computer will restart. After the reboot it will load Windows and start the installation of your software and drivers. Your computer will restart several times during this process. Once they are all completed, your computer will be like it was when you bought it first.

    If it does not and Acer cannot help you, read on:

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • 120 GB disk full Win7 - windows a 30% & winsxs a 15%

    I am very confused with the winsxs folder.
    My SSD is almost full, and each tool and accounting I use said winsxs a 16.2 GB of files.
    When I opened the files I see what are looking normal files (.ini, .sys and .exe) and the property file seem to indicate that they are hard links.
    My windows folder Eclipse users and programs (both) records over 30 GB reported.
    I need a lot of space for video and photo editing, but at the beginning is resembled my need that 30 GB of space to work on a 120 GB should work.

    Number of messages says this record is special and the size is not right and we should leave him alone.
    Several forum posts say these folders are created as a result of system or install/uninstall process restore operations.
    I 16 749 files in mine with various sizes of 1.5 k in 2 250 KB.  In every way I have look at these files, they look like real files.
    I doubt that I did 16 000 installs or has created 10,000 of restore points.  I have never done a restore or manually created a point.

    From the simple math, I doubt that these are only created by intall/unistall and restore point process.
    If I spent 5 minutes by install I have served 174 days 8 hours installation stuff in the past two years or 22 installs every day.
    The problem is real, because the programs have problems running because there is no place.
    The windows folder reports 26.9 GB after of many adjustments, cleanings, reductions of file page and FixIt operations.

    Can someone tell me how ID a link 'hard '?
    Is there a way to discover the disk space accurately and effectively allocated in NTFS?
    My only real option is to reinstall the OS and start this process again?

    Oh and isn't fun to have the two units of measurement of the disk space, GB and Gb or GB Giga without consistency similar in use.

    Thank you

    Type disk cleanup in the search above the Start button box and press ENTER. Click OK and after the calculation of space, you will see a window with a list of files to delete. Use the right-hand scroll bar to view the Scriptures further to the bottom of the list. Check the box before the cleaning of Windows Update and the Service Pack backup files and click OK

    Not much wrote again on the cleaning function of Windows Update added to cleaning disc in October 2013. The first time, it is managed it can increase the free space on the drive by something like 4 to 5 GB. The free space on the drive back if you run after the subsequent monthly updates is not so dramatic, but significant,

    Every time that you run this new feature when shut down you the system is reconfigured when stopping and when the computer is started then. This is similar to what happens when you install several updates of windows. However, the configuration can take several hours, which is much longer than when you have only updated. It is important not to press the power button configuration is underway. If you have a laptop, make sure that the computer is connected to a power source. Also the second time that stop you the process happens again, but this time after that configuration there is a reference to cleaning and when completed the computer automatically restarts on its own without any user input. When the computer has restarted the computer is available for use.

    No documentation I've seen warns the user what to expect, and my first reaction was that something had gone wrong. It was not and should not as long as the user not involved not.

  • PS7 and Scratch disk full, using XP SP3 with 1 HD... How to fix?

    I searched the forum, still couldn't find an answer or difficulty...  I installed my old PS7 on my new computer running XP with SP3 on an Intel Dual-Core, 1. 5 t HD (single player), 3 GB of RAM - not enough money for the PS, the computer upgrade took first dibs...  PS7 refuses to open - aprΦs the dΘmarrage, comes up with an error pop up indicating the Scratch disk is full and then stops.

    My old system (W-2000, only HD 20 GB, with 1.8 processor Pentium, 1 GB of RAM) worked perfectly with PS7 - never had any problems...

    I tried all the possible corrections...  HD is not even close to fragmented as it is a new drive; not quite yet installed programs, or use on computer, disk cleaning required; forced creation of the preferences (name changed to .old) file; and did the ctrl-alt-shift to start by default.  No idea what's happening, or why would he say the drive to complete work.

    The partition is too large n thrown out of the logic of internal swap file, most likely. Obviously, at the time when PS7 was hot, 1.5 TB drives were not around...
