Users often entrust the work of cleaning their disk from unnecessary files to various utilities that promise to do everything quickly and well literally in one click … Quickly - it turns out, well - not always. The fact is that the technologies implemented in these programs do not take into account the peculiarities of your computer. After all, one movie you watched for a long time, when deleted, could give you 4 GB of free space, and automatic cleaning from the power of 10 MB.
Necessary
Windows computer
Instructions
Step 1
Download the WinDirStat program from the developer's official website.
Step 2
We launch WinDirStat and analyze the disk in this program. Large files and directories will appear as larger rectangles. Everything is displayed simply and very clearly.
Step 3
We analyze which of the large files and directories we no longer need, and delete them. These can be directories with installation distributions of programs, old movies, saved data of games that we no longer play.
To delete files, right-click on the rectangle in the lower window and open the folder in Explorer.
