Solution for insufficient C disk space under Win8

  
 

Problem description: The new installation of Windows
8 system, installed Office2013 and other essential software, the landlord takes up about 25G space (C drive is Intel80G SSD), used to find C drive The remaining space is getting smaller and smaller, and finally the system prompts that the C drive space is insufficient! !

Problem analysis: 1, system page file (virtual memory) takes up space 2, automatically updated cache file 3, system protected backup file (for system restore) 4, hibernation file 5, index file 6, Desktop file

Workaround: 1. The landlord's machine is 8G memory, no need for virtual memory, so right click on the computer -> Advanced System Settings -> Advanced -> Performance -> Settings -> Advanced -> Change , remove the automatic management hook, point no page file, point settings, OK, restart, or switch to another partition, just click the no page file, set the D disk, point the system management size, point settings, OK, restart it. Reduce the occupancy of about 8G. 2, the automatic update cache file can be deleted, C: \\ WINDOWS \\ SoftwareDistribution \\ Download, you can delete, but it is best to close the automatic update after the update is complete. Reduce the occupancy of a few hundred M. 3, this can also be deleted, right-click computer, advanced system settings -> system protection -> configuration -> disable, delete, OK. Reduce the occupation of 4G. 4. The hibernation file first needs a command. Win X selects the administrator command line and enters powercfg -h off, which can reduce the occupation of 6G. 5, the index file can be deleted or transferred, in order to retain the function or transfer it. Control panel, index options, advanced, select new location, OK. This index file is transferred, if you do not want to search for features, then delete it. The method is win r enter service.msc to find Windows search, select disable, and then find a very large file in C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Search, you can delete. The landlord's problem is mainly here, because the office workers have a lot of files, and other locations besides the C drive are added to the index. It is convenient to find files~~ But the index file exceeds 30G inadvertently! Decisive transfer! 6, desktop files, very simple, transfer or delete!
