Windows 10: My windows 11 laptop memory keeps filling up on it own..

I keep freeing up space by uploading files to Google drive and deleting the files on my computer but the memory will fill up again on its own without me downloading files.How can I solve this problem?

Windows 10 Hard Drive Keeps Filling Up

No it's not, it's about right. This is the breakdown of what 'System & reserved' actually means....





You get this detailed breakdown by clicking on the 'System & reserved' bar seen in the earlier screenshots.

On possible cause for the OP's shrinking free space could be item two in that list, the virtual memory. If that is set for 'system managed' (as it is by default) and an errant app is eating up memory but not releasing it properly, then the swap file may just keep growing until it fills the disk.

 

Windows 11 Auto Fill list

I am running Windows 11. When I try to sign into an online account an "Auto Fill" drop down box for "username", drops down. In the list of usernames is one that is misspelled. Is there any way to delete this username from the autofill ?

 

C Drive Keeps Filling Up

Thanks. Extremely interesting article. I followed the steps as outlined, but when I was as the step to Stop the Windows Modules Installer Service, it was already stopped. So I was not quite sure how to proceed, so I abandoned the process. Since I had
already manually deleted most of the cab files, I now have 190 GB free space. I will closely monitor the free space to see how quickly it fills up, and if it fills up as quickly as the article suggests might happen, I will try again to follow the instructions
to see if I can get it to work. With the service already stopped, and set to Manual, if I get to that point again, do you have any suggestions on how to proceed? Thanks again for this very insightful article -- it sure explains a lot.
