    Okay so, I have noticed it like a week ago, but according to me being student of architecture where our programs take like 100GB I thought that it's nothing untill I saw a masive jump... Like MASSIVE.Yesterday I cleared up like 20 GB so i ended up with 47 GB free storage, but when I started the computer today it said only 27GB free which obviously gave me a heart attack.I am suspecting a possible virus bc of Python being on without having an actual Python downloaded but I had it installed in past. Made check up with ESET and Malwarebytes but they have found nothing. plus now trying to check

  2. Disk C Fills Up

    When I use disk cleanup and delete some files, disk C fills up space even I empty the recycle bin still fills up space.

  3. Local Disk C filled up and red while not being filled actually.

    I had plenty of space in my Local Disk C folder, all of sudden the "apps and features" started showing 161GBs filled up space while it clearly is hardly 20GBs. It keeps filling up no matter how much I delete. Please suggest a solution.

    I tried emptying all temporary files etc. But it keeps showing it as red.

    Disk C filling up

    Hello, my disk C has been filling up by itself. I freed 15GB of space by deleting the folders synchronized with dropbox and the next day disc C was full again.

    I run ESET which healed 38 elements but nothing changed. Then I used ADW cleaner and CC cleaner which freed a little over 7GB.

    Then I tried Dr. Web CureIt but it didn't find anything. Malwarebytes found again some elements and now it shows that everything is fine.

    My problem is that right now my space on disk C is 6.9GB which shows that it's still filling up (much slower but still). I also don't know what happened with the other 8GB I freed yesterday. I don't have much left to delete so I don't know what to do.

    I tried searching for what could by filling the space with TreeSize and WinDirStat but I can't really find anything suspicious with my poor knowledge about computers.

    Disck C shows that 6.93/119 is free. Treesize shows that disc C has a size of 116.4GB with allocated 166.6GB and free space 6.9GB.
