    Whats filling my C drive?


    My OS SSD C is is (almost) full, I'm getting warnings.
    I only have 55.8GB of 200GB used for Windows.
    Only 3 restore points in C + 10% reserved = 20GB
    56(c) + 20(restore) = 76GB for C.
    This leaves a difference of 124GB unaccounted for.
    My BU and System Image are in in a separate drive G.
    No malware or virus's running in the background, CPU and RAM usage is normal.
    I have run TDSSKiller, no R00T Kits.

    Can someone help me audit my C and clean it up?

    c drive filling up

    When you download from the Internet, the file you are downloading is placed in a cache that is on the C drive, usually the Temporary Internet Files folder. Once the file is completely downloaded, the "Save as" option in the browser will then move it to
    another location that you specify. That's why, during the download, the C drive fills: that's where the temporary files reside.
