Good Day everyone,

I have just built a new system and am having trouble (of sorts) with my O/S drive. I am using an intel 320 120GB SSD and my free space is shrinking dramatically. System is 3 1/2 weeks old and I went from 86 GB free to 64 in that time. I am using it only for O/S and a few programs. Have not added any games or anything else really. I have a 1TB drive for storage which seems fine... any idea what gives??

Sounds like you did not do any space saving tweaks.

The link that asnorton44 provided is pretty good. Looks like it covers all the tweaks.

I still do the backup/restore once a week but I save the backup files to my hard disk drive.

Thanks for the tips. I had done a few but not all of those tips. I did gain back a few GB by disabling my page filing....

Thanks again asnorton44
