Drive C:\ storage decreasing

[mohtaj]

Hello

Been a long while since I last visited this awesome forum. I would like to know why the drive C:\ on my computer is decreasing in free space. Apart from the software installed, is there any other folder like "temp" that I can manually clean to free up more space?

Thanks a lot for any help.

The appdata folder tends to just build up over time. Nothing you can really do.

CCleaner will clean some of it out.

Use WinDirStat to scan the drive and see what is using the space.

Use CCleaner to clean out temp files and clear browser cache, history, and cookies.

So do you suggest a reinstall of Windows?

What kind of History do you mean exactly?
like the saved passwords in FireFox and all the websites I previously visited on it?
What if I need everything regarding my Firefox?

Then don't clear it. I don't care what you do.

There's checkboxes within CCleaner in the Firefox section that you can look through. Just deselect the ones you want to keep and it'll clean everything else.
