About this video: This video will show you exactly how to free up disk space on Windows 10. This is all done with absolutely no downloads all using tools build into Windows. Truthfully, this can allow you to clean up your hard drives on Windows 10 and get hundreds of gigabytes back.
First things first, we need to open disk cleanup. Search for ‘Disk Cleanup’ in the Start Menu. Then, select the hard drive you want to clean up. Click OK, and then click ‘Clean Up System Files’. You may get a warning go ahead and continue. Click OK again on the drive you want to clean up, things will calculate, and finally the disk cleanup will open.
Now, go down through this list and select what you want to clean out. I’ve always done all of this and never had an issue, but you could create a restore point just in case you do have problems with something that is delete here. Click Okay in disk cleanup, confirm you want to delete the files, and disk cleanup will then delete all the things you selected.
Next, go to storage settings by searching it in the Start Menu. You will then see your main computer’s hard drive and everything that is taking up space on it ordered from the largest files on your system to the smallest.
First, clean out the Apps and Software that you no longer need. This is usually how you can save the most space the quickest.
From there, let’s look at Temporary Files. Here, you can select and remove all the temporary files. From there, go through all of the things shown using a lot of storage here and clean them out individually. This will take a while, but it will be worth it as it can get you a decent amount of storage back in Windows 10.
Before we finish though, how can you keep things clean moving forward automatically? Well, at the top of storage, you can turn on Storage Sense. This cleans up your computer automatically, and if you click on settings, you can configure what is cleaned up and how often.
