C: drive maxed out . . .

Question

My computer is a Dell laptop, running Windows 10

Is there any way, to see a graphic display of the hard drive?

I want to take a picture to show you how full my C: drive is.

If you say computer management for Windows 10.

You are only given the instructions.

I think it's in the control panel.

I've been trying to do this, for a long time.

This is related to, formatting my computer.

Thanks for reading . . . Jerry

Hi again Jerry

I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this.

Is this in relation to your question on your C drive being full?

If it is, did you download TreeSize from the Microsoft Store?

If you did, right click that utilities icon and select 'Run as Administrator' then, please provide a screenshot of your C drive in that utility.

Answer 5

Hi Jerry

I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this.

Windows and indeed File Explorer is not great when it comes to working out where your hard drive space is being used, because there is no way to show what folders are using the space on your drive.

Click the link below to download a small free utility called Treesize. Using that tool, you will instantly see where this space is being used.

To run TreeSize, right click its icon and choose Run as Administrator.

Please provide a screenshot of your C drive in that TreeSize utility, so I can see your hard drive and work out where that space is being used and if there is an underlying problem.
