So i have only noticed this recently, my SSD for my main C drive is filling up way too fast for how little i install stuff on it. I only have 2 games installed since they only work on the Main drive for some reason, however the pagefile seems to increase in size way too much, as well as windows keeps making more and more and more files on there that i dont really need i think and it fills up my drive much too fast. I used to on average with the same 2 games installed have around 10-15gb free but now im constantly running on 2gb. I do not know what to do. I have tried reducing the virtual memory however when i do that, windows will auto close any program i have or force it to crash even though i have 8gb of memory. Thank you kindly for the response. I have provided a picture thanks to space sniffer to show whats taking up the space.

move the page file to another drive or reduce it to like 2GB. it will run fine.

Disable hibernation

Go into system restore and reduce the max space it can use or turn it off.

Delete your temp files and downloads that are not needed.

Games and programs do not need to be on the main drive. Steam definitely does not need to be.
 
Hibernation is already disabled, and a few games from steam actully only work properly on the main drive like dark souls max payne 2 and a hyperdemension game. and when i moved the page file to 2 gb last time, constant messages kept poping up saying, please close this program, and this is within 5 minutes of turning on the pc, itll ask me to close any single program im running even games as itll crash them. As for moving to another drive, isnt that bad if its not on the main drive but on another?
