    c drive space decrease

    Hello,

    This behavior can occur when System Restore is turned on on your computer. System Restore uses a portion of the hard disk to store "restore points." These restore points are used by System Restore to return your computer to an earlier state.

    System Restore creates a new restore point each time that you start the computer.

    We suggest following advised steps to resolve issue in our support page regarding sorting

    C drive space decrease
    .

    Update us with the outcome.

    Regards.

    Drive C space decreases constantly

    Hi,

    One of the possible reasons why your disk space decreases is due to the automatic restore feature. This frequently happens when you installed a program or you have updated your device. To adjust the Automatic System Restore settings, follow the steps below:

    • Press the Windows key.
    • Type Recovery.
    • Click Recovery, then select Configure System Restore.
    • Click Configure.

    You'll be provide option to either disable system restore. Please take note that once you disabled System Restore, you won't be able to use the restore feature if you encountered any error in the future. You'll also see an option to modify the usage of your
    disk space allotted for System Restore. The Delete button will delete all restore points on your device.

    Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.
