I only have 6% hard drive space and I have a new computer with 100GB - what's going on and what can I do?

Question

This makes it so cannot defragment , driving me crazy

Answer 1

Very likely you have a LOT of internet files cached. Try Disk Cleanup first (in the Accessories). That will give you options of files to delete (temporary internet files, cookies, etc.). Make your selection of what kind of files to get rid of and hit ok. With almost 100GB of space it will take some time.

The only other thing that I can think of is that you work with large files, are storing movies and music directly on your hard drive, or have a virus that is constantly creating and saving files to your hard drive without you knowing about it. If you do use and store large files you might want to get them off with a Flash Drive or compact them using ZIP or archiving features.

Peace!

Open the control panel and click add remove program- Window will bring all the program or folders from your hard drive,select the program you don,t use or less usable and click remove.If you wanted to remove more program at once click and hold the Ctrl keys and click another program and then click remove.Which will make some space on your hard drive.Later clean your hard drive,it won,t take much time.After removing program boot your computer.
