    I have a very similar problem and have not seen an answer. My c: drive, an SSD, is losing space constantly. I have determined it is the system protection feature that is causing the problem. The real problem is the max usage slider keeps moving to 100% by itself. I set it ti 2% or whatever, and it frees up a lot of space. A few weeks later my space is low again and I check and the max usage slider is at 100% again. Is there a fix, or disscussion, for this particular issue?
    I am using win10 home. BTW, this same issue occurred on win7.

    Essentially, that is the workaround at this time.
    My other Win10 peeve is unreliable sleep or hibernate.
