[SOLVED] From USB TO E: but for some reason C: gets full too?

[Uctv]

So my C: drive is a small SSD meant just for my os while my E drive is a HDD which is for my games, so I plugged my usb, open the game.rar and waited for it to read then copy the folder onto my E: drive, later I got a prompt that says I don't have enough memory on my C: drive and it went from empty to full while my game was perfectly copied to my E drive... I am kinda confused and don't know why my C: drive is affected.

Games never come with RAR extensions so you must be using illegal copies and you won’t get much help here

Huh? I play skyrim, VIA steam, with mods that makes my game over 100GB+ so I made a backup incase it breaks one day and I can restore to a safe point.

I have more than 1 back up so I put them into rar so it can fit into the usb

Can you state where you sourced the games from? Perhaps the file may be corrupt...?

In that case copy your archive to the E Dr. and uncompress it there

I am sorry guys maybe I didn't clarify, the game is working fine now that I replaced with my backup, but the thing is that my C: drive is full too but I only moved the game from my external usb to E: which confuses me =l

Likely an issue with temp files. Where (which storage device) is your virtual memory located?

Sorry I had to look it up, it is on my C: drive

I suggest moving to a larger HDD.

Will it affect the booting time or ssd loading performance?

It shouldn't. If it does, just change it back.

Well it is done, hopefully my C: drive won't fill up when I extract from my usb haha, thankyou very much COL and everyone for the fast reponses!
