[SOLVED] Something is eating space in my C:

[aesthete18]

Been getting notifications about space being low for a couple of weeks I think. Figured it was because of a game I installed so I ignored it. Day before I tried to save something and realized it was down to below 50mb. I deleted about 1gb of space as a temporary solution but also thought it was weird that it was so low so sudden. Then now, it's the same below 50mb. I have no installed/downloaded anything since I freed up 1gb except for some pics and Photoshop stuff would be less than 100mb.

What can I do? I did an antivirus check recently but nothing came up. I'm running one again while posting this. Is this a virus? What eats space like that so quickly? Some bitcoin miner? I've been hearing about that stuff.

Relevant info:
- AMD Radeon HD 6530D
- Kingston 4GB PC10600 DDR3 1333
- AMD ATHLON II A6-3500 Triple Core APU 2.1GHz Processor
- Gigabyte A75M-S2V Motherboard

Try using windirstat and it will show you what is using most

WinDirStat - Windows Directory Statistics

Another thought, is it a hdd or ssd? Try running HDTune on it and check the health tab. let it finish a scan, only thing you want to see is green OK in every row.
