  1. My Windows 10 system files occupy over 300 GB in space


    Hi I wanted to see if any of you guys could help me free some space from the disk as it’s occupying too much space. I’ve already deleted temp files and was wondering if maybe formatting the disk while preserving windows would solve it, or if there is any other way of solving the issue.

    Windows 10 System files occupying 130 GB

    Good morning,

    I have Windows 10 installed in a SSD partition with 225 Gb. I have recently found out that 130 Gb are occupied by System and Reserved, of which 118 Gb are occupied by file systems only. I already cleaned my laptop with both Storage Sense and Disk Cleanup.
    I don't have a Windows.old folder.

    Can anyone suggest how to free up space in my SSD? I understand that Windows 10 can work properly with only half of that space, so I do not get why it eats so much of it.

    Thank you for your help.

    Sofia.

    My Windows 10 system files occupy over 300 GB in space

    windows 10 size is 4 gb but it occupies more space while installing it

    hi,
    windows 10 size is 4gb but installing it on c drive with 31.4 gb free space, renders only 2 gb free space .
    is it possible to reduce it to 5 or 6 gb.
