Win7/win8.1 system disk gradually smaller how to expand?

  

Win7/win8.1 system disk gradually smaller method one:

1, system hibernation function will generate hidden system files in the root directory of C: hiberfil.sys, this file size is just right Your physical memory is the same. When you put the computer to sleep, Windows writes all the memory contents to the Hiberfil.sys file before shutting down the system. Then, when you turn the computer back on, the operating system uses Hiberfil.sys to put all the information back into memory and the computer is restored to its pre-closed state. Windows does not delete this file, but keeps it on the hard disk, which will take up a portion of the disk space. With the sleep function, the hibernation function can choose not to be used. This is the hard disk space that occupies a large household. The space that can be released by shutting down hibernation is considerable. How big is your memory, how much you can release, for example, your memory is 4G. Then you can release 4G space.

2, Win7, Win8 safely delete the hibernation file method:

Run cmd.exe as an administrator to open a command line window, and then run: powercfg -h off;

Note that the hiberfil.sys hidden file of the C disk can be deleted after being unhidden;

Win7/win8.1 system disk gradually becomes smaller Method 2:

Load unwanted programs

First check if there are any programs you don't need in your program menu, and if you can, uninstall them. The method of uninstalling is very simple. Just enter the control panel and open “Add/Remove Programs.

Second, easy to ignore folders

Since we are in the file operation, the default save location is "My Documents". And "My Documents" is the default location in the C drive, so when the C drive space is insufficient, it is recommended that you check the capacity of the files in my document, and you can transfer it to other partitions. The method is to open the "My Documents" property window, and then click the "Move" button in the "Destination Folder" tab to select a new location.

Another folder that is easy to ignore is “Download(Downloads)”. The default storage path of the download tool is C:Download (Downloads), and ordinary users are accustomed to using the default settings when downloading, so that downloading several large movies takes up one or two G, so it is not against these. The contents of the folder are moved to another partition, and the downloaded files are not saved to the Download folder.

Third, transfer

We can also transfer some files that were originally stored in the C drive to other partitions, including virtual content, temporary files, and so on. The first is virtual memory, which takes up 1.5 times of physical memory. It is recommended that you open the system properties window and click on the “ In the window that opens, click the "Change" button in the "Advanced" tab, then select the C partition, set it to "No paging file", and then select D or other partitions to redefine the virtual memory. size.

For computers connected to the Internet, you can also transfer temporary file storage locations. Open the IE“Tools>; Internet Options" command under the menu, click the "Internet Temporary Files" "Setting" button, and then click “Move Folder"; Other locations outside the disc are fine.

Fourth, hibernation and system restore

Enabling hibernation and system restore also take up a lot of space, we can turn it off. First enter the control panel, open the "Power Options", and then cancel the "Hibernate" option in the "Hibernate" tab. Secondly, you can open the system properties window and select "Resume System Restore on all drives" in the "System Restore" tab. After this operation, you can release about 1G of space.
