    Windows 10 OC: C drive mysteriously full


    My Dell XPS 13 updated to Windows 10 is almost completely out of storage space. I have uninstalled all nonessential programs under 20GB for sure, but the Apps and Features still claims to use 115GB. I don't know how to clear out more storage or what might be causing this problem. Have you had a similar problem, or do you know how to fix it?

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
