Clean install + 2 apps = 55gb
I've not used Windows on a home computer for several years but decided to create a virtual machine of Windows 10 just to see how it is. So installed a clean copy downloaded from Microsoft website and added SharePoint Designer 2013 and Visual Studio Community 2015 to give a first go.
After installing these the virtual machine file was 58gb!! I ran a few clean up programs and compacted the OS which brought it down to 55gb but this is still a crazy size just for an OS and two applications.
How do I get this back down to a much more manageable level? At this level I will have to remove the OS as its eating up too much of my SSD as a secondary OS
