  1. My c drive shrunk in total gb size?


    I reinstalled Windows on my PC transferring files from my laptop. After recovery, I then noticed my PC's C drive total space had shrunk.

    It's now the same as my laptop and that's around 200GB’s that just vanished in total space.

    What's going on? My c drive shrunk in total gb size? :)

    (I have tried Disk Management and terminal. I entered "disk part" -> "list disk" Nothing showed up.)

  2. Extend C drive Size

    Your Image does not show a D partition. It does show an F partition which if reduced in size would enable you to increase the size of the C partition.



    These are the steps needed to enable you to increase the size of your C partition:




    • Reduce F by 20 gb placing the unallocated space before F.

    • Increase the Recovery partition by 20 gb taking up unallocated space created by Step 1.

    • Reduce the Recovery partition by 20 gb placing the unallocated space before the Recovery partition.

    • Increase the C partition by 20 gb to take in the unallocated space before the Recovery partition.


    You can use Easeus Partition Manager (freeware) to carry out these tasks. The files in each partition are automatically moved when you carry out each step detailed above.

  3. c: drive total space 120gb showing free 22gb

    Hi

    Apps and Features only show the size of the installed apps.

    An easy way to see the total usage of the hard drive is to look in File Explorer.

    Open File Explorer, in the left side Navigation Pane,
    Right Click the C: Drive and select Properties.

    This will open a window showing the total and used space on the drive.

    You can also click Settings/System/Storage to see the status of the hard drives.

    Regards

    My c drive shrunk in total gb size?

    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.

    - - - Updated - - -

    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.
