Windows 10: How to free up space on computer?

Dell xps 15 9550.

250gb ssd samsung. Have about 30gb free of 232gb.

i5-6300hq and 8gb ram

Windows 10 pro



I moved some music files from my c drive to my 32gb m.2 ssd that is in my laptop. It currently has 2 hard drives there. That and my main 250gb ssd samsung 2.5 inch.


I went to chrome and clear my entire cache history... and i think it freed up 0.5gb.


Should i remove my entire cookies history? If so, that should free up a lot of space?


Also can i disk optimize? Also i heard that you should never drag an ssd. I have previously defragged this ssd many times a while back ago when i used this ssd in another laptop. But i no longer do this. So do not defrag the ssd right?


What other options are there for me to free up space? The thing is almost all my programs i use such as in my desktop etc... well i use. So i can't remove programs like itunes etc.


I heard of programs like ccleaner. I used it previously in old laptops. But it is good and safe to use?


Most importantly, always download the program from the official site and not hippo.com or sites like that right?


Is it possible i could free up as much as 30gb or even more?

:)
