    System Files taking up too much space (over 200gb)

    (I know this is a frequently asked question but I needed to ask this for myself, as I have already tried most of the advice I have gotten through searches)

    My Bootcamp Windows (I'm running Windows 10 on my Mac) has around 233gb of designated space. However, currently System Files is taking up most of that space, over 200gb of it and I have no more space on my Macintosh to spare. As seen in the pictures below.

    As I said before, I have already tried using applications such as Folder Size and Disk Cleanup (pictures below) to try to solve my problem, however there is not much to clean using Disk Cleanup, and Folder Size doesn't show where
    the 200gb "System Files" are located.

    Is there any other way I can solve this issue? Perhaps forcefully deleting some system files (although I'm worried that might cause some issues)?
    (If you have any other information you need for context, please do not hesitate to respond to this question and I will try to provide it).

    Thanks.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    file system error -1073545193

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family.

    From the description provided, I understand that you are encountering the error message when you are trying to access any media file in the CD/DVD Drive of your computer.

    This issue may happen due to system file corruption. I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow
    the below given steps:


    • Press Windows key + X, select
      Command prompt (Admin) to bring up elevated Command prompt.

    • In Command prompt type
      sfc/scannow
      and press enter.
    • Restart the computer.
    If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:


    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.

    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
    Hope the above information was helpful. If you need further information, feel free to write to us and we would be happy to assist you further.

    Thank You.
