    Im a gamer/content creator so I have lots of stuff on my PC. video records and things I create from adobe. after I finish a project, I usually try to delete any and everything associated with that project to recover that space as well as anything I don't use. I'm constantly always deleting and never have space on my harddrive...what is going on???? Not only that but according to the programs I have installed...I don't see where the space is...

  3. Low Disk Space error

    Hi,

    I suggest you to delete the unwanted applications or games installed on the device and also perform a Disk Cleanup.

    In order to delete the games or applications, which has been downloaded from the Windows Store you need to right click on the game and select
    Uninstall option from the Start menu.

    If the games that you are downloaded are .exe or the applications which are not downloaded from the Windows Store, you may try deleting it from the Control panel.

    To do so, please follow the below steps.

    • Right Click on Start Menu.
    • Open Control Panel.
    • Click Programs.
    • Click Programs and Features.
    • Click on the programs that you would like to uninstall.
    I suggest you to try the steps in the following article to free up space and check if it helps.

    I keep deleting programs but still have little to no space...

    Should Any Of These Programs Be Deleted?

    Do not delete any of these. They are important parts of Windows.

    Also note the following two points:

    1. If you uninstall a program, you can save *some* disk space, but the programs you list don't use a lot of disk space, so there's not much to be saved. And disk space is so inexpensive these days that any savings wouldn't be more than a few pennies worth

    2. Uninstalling a program does *not* improve performance. An installed program does not use any resources unless it's running. Only stopping a program from running can improve performance, but whether that increase in performance is even noticeable depends
    on what program it is. Some programs use so little in the way of resources that you could never notice any difference in performance whether the program was running or not.
