    How to Create Disk Cleanup All Items Checked Shortcut in Windows 10


    You can use Disk Cleanup on a regular basis to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your drives, which can free up drive space and help your PC run better. It can delete temporary files and system files, empty the Recycle Bin, and remove a variety of other items that you might no longer need.

    Disk Cleanup will already have items to delete checked and unchecked by default. You may want to have all items checked by default instead.

    This tutorial will show you how to create a Disk Cleanup shortcut that opens with all items checked by default in Windows 10.

    You will still be able to manually check and uncheck items in Disk Cleanup opened using this shortcut.

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    No its built into Windows, just open disk cleanup and select 'Clean up system Files' button on the bottom left- now you'll see previous installs of Windows listed under list of cleanable items. My old install is a whopping 25GB of my 256GB SSD.
