Windows folder too big and growing?

[Athorian]

Hi guys, I have looked around a bit and I can't seem to find my answer. Hopefully someone can figure this out.

So I have a 150GB boot drive, I have put a bit more on it than I should have as a boot drive but its slowly running out of room no matter how much I erase. The "Windows" folder is currently 112 GB by itself and I feel like it shouldn't be so large, could be wrong.

I used "Disk Cleanup" deleted all but the previous backup, I also heavily limited the space it has for a backup but I just keep running out of room and I can't tell if its windows just hogging all my data or not.
Also worth stating I have checked for any form of virus or bug and its not any of those.

I run Windows 7 and so far the only fixes I have found for this are the two I attempted above, if anyone has ideas about why its just taking up all the room on my HD please post them. However if I'm just crazy and its suppose to take up that much memory then I probably just need to upgrade my HD.

Thanks for any help.

Use ccleaner it'll probably remove a lot more temp files

Untick chrome if you dont want it

your restore points must be taking a lot of space.Try cleaning some .

No restore points on my computer, and its allocated space for one is quite limited....I can't make heads or tails of this. Is there a directory that has all the known trash files in the windows folder that I can just get rid of?

Like I said get ccleaner it'll remove the temp files on the hdd

check the size of your swap file and reduce it and make sure you have another swap file available on your slower big drive
