SpaceSniffer
analyzes a selected hard drive and presents you with a dynamic disk map that makes it easy to spot files and folder that take up most of your space. You can review the map in real-time while the application is scanning, and any changes made (e.g file deletions, renames, new files)…
Freeware. Other items on same site.http://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/system…
And try this for more routine maintenance:
Run CCelaner: (http://www.filehippo.com/download_cclean…
To keep a Windows system running at peak efficiency, registry cleaning is one important procedure (among many others).
Download; create a ‘Restore Point; install CCleaner; then:
On the main CC window, the ‘paintbrush’ tab is for the Windows components that you can clean; (in the ‘Advanced’ heading, check ‘Hotfix uninstallers’ to clear these files) & tick the bottom right box (Run Cleaner) an it will delete (or overwrite option) those files.
***********
Same procedure for the ‘applications’ tab.
Next, down from the’ paintbrush’ is the ‘Registry’ icon (like a Rubik’s Cube); first tick ‘Scan for issues’ button on the bottom; wait for the process to run.
It’ll show a long list of entries for the first couple of cleanings; (Back up your first couple of registry cleanings, and if your unit gets ungovernable, restore those files. I’ve never had to do it, so I can’t tell you how. After that the cleanings will be for empty folders or other junk so backup likely won’t be necessary).
When ready, tick the ‘Fix Selected entries’ and CC will take care of those.
For your 1st few uses, have checked the ‘show prompt to back up registry files’; open CC> Options> Advanced> check the ‘show prompt…’ box; then tick the ‘yes’ or confirm to back up the registry. (It gets saved to the ‘c’ drive, as ‘ccxxxxxx’)
Download Ccleanr (previously known as crap cleaner) it gets rid of all that junkhttp://www.ccleaner.com/
Also use it to configure you startup programs. Disabling unnecessary ones will increase the speed at which your computer loads your user area.
try a free software called ccleaner that will get rid of all the crap in you’re temp files also defrag the machine
