Ways to get more free space

[reigoskeiter]

Hello.
Is there any ways that you know how to make more space in the computer, besides disk cleanup?
Like any programs or so.

Uninstall any programs you don't use, use ccleaner to delete your old temporary files. Buy a bigger hard drive and clone old drive to new.

Run that and it'll delete your browsing history as well as a crap ton of other stuff you don't need. It also has a registry cleaner which I suggest using.

It's basically a defragmenter, but it's a lot better than the one Windows comes loaded with.

Like Windows uninstaller, except it gets EVERYTHING associated with a given program. There seem to be a lot of users who don't like uninstalling programs, but there are so many that are only used once.

Disk space is so abundant and cheap nowadays, I hardly bother freeing up space. When disk space cost $25/MB it was very important to manage any wasted space but now that disk space costs less than $0.10 per GB it hardly seems worth worrying about.

If your drive is formatted NTFS you could use the built-in disk compression. See Save-hard-drive-space-with-ntfs-compression
