Hey guys, I have a slight problem?
I want to clean my C: Drive up, reason being I haven't got many things downloaded etc and I've only 15.8gb memory left out of 148gb (Very low I know).
I have a 300gb external hard drive aswell but want to free up my computer.
I updated my laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro awhile back.
If anyone could help me would be great, If this doesn't make sense I'm sorry
-Dublin

Download [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] . It will get rig of all the junk like temp files from your pc.

You can also manually delete programs by going into control panel -> programs -> uninstall a program and get rid of all the ones you dont need.

CC cleaner is a good way, as Xiggy said.
I just used it to clear up my C drive using drive wiper.

It can clean whole drives yes, but not your C drive otherwise your pc wont work.
And yeah, it is free.

Just clear some system restore points and that will free a decent amount of space.
Curiously did you upgrade to windows 8 or do a fresh install of 8.

I did an upgrade,I still have windows 7 (old) files on it but don't want to risk deleting if I'm not supposed to.
