  1. 8 GB of storage from C: gone after cancelling MCT


    So, I wanted to install Windows 10 on my other computer and wanted the setup on my USB Drive, but on MCT it said you need atleast 16 GB of space to literally download it to the USB, but because of that I deleted most of the unwanted stuff I didn't need and got it back upto about 16 gigs, then I ran the installation but I had to cancel the installation because my internet stopped working, but after I cancelled it the C: Drive showed that there was only about 13 GB left so I restarted my computer to see if that does anything but it made it worse now it says 9 GB is left in the drive but there's

    Windows 10 storage 8 gb of "Other"

    After reverting to a stable build of Windows 10, I decided to remove some temporary files.

    After doing that, I find that the OS drive still takes more space than I remember it being before I installed a Windows Insider preview.

    When looking at "storage", I find that there was 8.52 gb of "Other".

    When looking at other, none of the folder sizes add up to 8 gb. How do I find what's taking 8 gbs of my storage?

    What's eating up my \C: drive?

    That reduced System Volume Information to 662 KB, left $GetCurrent at 3.8 GB which is called media when clicking the little arrow. Storage sense or Disk cleanup gave no reference to $GetCurrent, and the [2 files] are pagefile.sys and swapfile.sys.

    I will thank everyone and mark this thread as solved, I now have over 27 GB of free space on my C: drive, it must just slowly get down to size where Windows warned me with a red "flag" when viewing This PC.

    Why did the startup window get cleared?

    I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.
