This video will show you how to free up emergency HDD space on the hard disk drive of your Windows 10 PC using methods that are included naively within the Windows 10 operating system. Important to note, many of the methods shown in this video will disable the ability to restore your Windows 10 operating system to a previous state should it become corrupt in the future, so these methods should only be taken if the user is comfortable with the possibility of losing the ability to restore their machine to a previous state in the case of corruption. The methods shown in this video are as follows:
Using Disk Cleanup in order to delete Windows temporary files (including the previous installations of Windows, which take up a considerable amount of GB)
Uninstalling / deleting programs and/or apps found in the Start Menu, in the Settings - Apps section of Windows 10, and in the Programs and Features section of Control Panel
Turning off System Protection and deleting all system restore points
