    HELP! I just lost 3 GB of space randomly!


    I was just browsing the internet when suddenly my laptop screen flickered and went black momentarily, coming back on and readjusting while making that sound the one it makes when you plug in a flashdrive or external. I couldn't figure out what happened, but when I checked my drive I had suddenly lost 3 GB of space! I have no viruses or malware or anything, and I don't know of any updates that could've done this! How do I reverse or fix this?!

    :)

    Suddenly 28 GB of space disappeared from C:

    Hi, In the morning I opened my laptop and noticed that there is an around of 28 GB of space left in C:. I was running my dev application and for about after half an hour I got the "Manage space.." error.. I checked in the Windows Explorer and to my suprise
    C: lost all its space. It was showing 0 GB. I have tried many resolutions that i found on web -

    • Using CCleaner
    • Clearing temp files
    • Disk Cleanup
    • TreeSize app to view the size of files
    I don't have hibernate option enabled and also System Resotre Point is disabled.

    Please help.

    Lost 2 GB of free space on my phone

    I lost 2 GB of free space on my phone I cant tell what is taking up space and I can't access email any more, because it says I don't have enough storage.

    I did down load anything I had 3.1 GB of free space last night and now 2 GB are eaten up.



    Windows 8 Lumina 810.
