    System says i'm using 147GB in space, but i only see 60-80GB

    So, i'm trying to clean up my disk (200gb) after seeing i'm using way too much space, i looked up what was taking up the most space and windows said it was Apps and Features, i opened the tab to uninstall some of these but doing some math, the numbers don't seem to match up at all

    Windows basically says it's taking up 147gb which i believe it is, but seeing whats taking up space just doesn't match up at all, on the image attached, the softwares don't even seem to go up at least 3gb but doing some math with every other game/software i have on this pc, i could say i have at least 60gb in apps and features but windows don't really wanna tell me where is the rest of it so i can clean it

    Any advice?

    Hi Alian,

    I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.

    Apps and features usually show a fraction of what is being used.

    Treesize should tell you which files and folders are taking up the space.

    You can send us a screenshot after selecting the drive for the next steps.

    How much space is enough?

    I agree with Andre, 80GB is more than adequate for Windows 2010.

    How much of that 80GB is free?

    Officially MS says as a minimum requirement that 64 bit Windows only requires 20GB to install. The new updates, even the big ones like the Fall Creators Update should take 6GB or less.

    If you are interested, we can provide some suggestions on how to clean up disk space.
