    Windows 10 has filled my C drive


    Hi,I have turned off Windows Updates as Windows has entirely jammed my C drive, so much so I have problems running other programs. I have had to remove most programs from the C drive and place on an alternate drive. In Windows Explorer my C drive is 80 gigs.Is it possible there are many gigs of redundant Windows files I can delete? Or is there any way of scaling down the size of Windows?I have tried uninstalling MS Office that I can see in TreeSize but it will not delete. I don't have many options of what to remove now. I use CapCut for editing which is installed on an alternate drive, but to

    Have you check if Windows is currently downloading an update?

    C: Drive Filling Up Fast!

    Hi!

    My laptop's (Win 10 OS) C: drive fills up very fast. I've tried almost everything like:

    1) Using cleaning software

    2) Deleting temp, prefetch and cache files

    3) Disabling Windows updates

    4) Allocating more space to C:

    5) Deleting software

    But still within a month, or two C: fills up. I don't understand what's happening. Can someone suggest a fix?

    Thanks in advance
