    Freeing up space on hard drive

    Windows 7 has a nasty problem of eating up all disk space in the following two folders:

    • C:\Windows\Logs\CBS
    • C:\Windows\Temp
    You can delete the contents of both directories without impact. Some files will not be able to be deleted because they are in use. You can skip those, and should not try to delete them.

    Additionally, there are many common methods that you can try to free up hard drive space on your Windows 7.

    Free hard drive backup/restore program?

    I am looking for a free (freeware) program that will back up and restore a hard drive. I'm looking to clone a few external hard drives. If the program will backup the used space instead of the whole drive this will be awesome! Thanks for any suggestions.

    Free hard drive backup/restore program?

    Obviously you're looking for something besides your Xp Pro utility that does this?
