Win8 C disk is getting smaller and smaller how to do

Computer Store News: In general, Windows 8 will occupy about 20GB of hard disk space. During the use process, it is normal for the disk space of the system disk to become less and less. Where is the available space for the C drive?
These spaces are used here: Registry: User data and program data are constantly written to the registry, so the registry will also become larger. Patch installation: When Windows Update auto-update is turned on, a new patch will be released almost every month. Installing the patch requires extra space (the patch replaces some files and backs up the original files). System Restore: System Restore automatically creates a restore point and requires hard disk space. App Store Cache: App Store will have residual cache file deposits when downloading apps, taking up some space. There are also some places that use some disk space, so I won't say much here. Can you release some used space and let the C drive lose weight? You can try these methods: 1. We can use the system's own tools for disk cleaning: http://windows.microsoft.com/zh-CN/windows7/Improve-performance-by-defragmenting-your-hard-disk 2 Setting the space usage limit for system restore If the system restore function is turned on, the system will also automatically generate some image files, occupying the capacity of the C drive. We can set an upper limit for this part of the space based on the capacity of the hard disk. This step requires administrator privileges. 1) Win+W Search “Advanced System Settings Click ““View Advanced System Settings”

2) If the User Account Control window pops up, please allow to continue.

3) Click on the <quo;System Protection” tab. Click the “Configure” button.

4) Pull the buoy to the right or left to adjust the space usage limit, and finally click “OK>Save Changes.

3, turn off hibernation, sleep plan If the sleep hibernation function is turned on, a hidden system file hiberfil.sys will be generated in the root directory of the system. It takes up a certain amount of system space, generally the same size as computer memory. Therefore, if the system disk space is not large enough, this large file will become a burden. If the system disk is almost full, then turn off this feature. 1) Win+W Search " Power & rdquo;, click “Power Options”

2) Find the current power plan, click on the “Change Plan Settings” link.

3) Click “Change Advanced Power Settings> 4) Find and expand the &&quoquo;sleep” item, set &;sleep”,“sleep” set to “never> ; Finally press “OK” to save your changes. 4. Clean up the app store cache. Win+R input “wsreset”
