size of user profile

[caxander8]

why is there a difference in the size of user profiles from 120 MB - 10 GB?

Of PC?
One is yours, one is Public, one is guest and one is hidden by default of windows called Administrator.
Yours have 10GB for example cause of %appdata%, you can delete only everything inside of %temp% folder NOTHING ELSE! UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DONT NEED TO HAVE!

If you have multiple users each of them take up seperate space on the hard drive. That space grows dynamically as the use needs more, for example user 1 does normal daily work without saving many documents, pictures, emails, etc. That might be a 120MB user. User 2 saves everything, hundreds of documents, pictures, videos, etc, that could easily grow to 20GB and beyond, especially pictures and videos.
