“Disk full” in Windows 10 – memory leak?
My C: drive is 3GB away from "disk full" It's a 750 GB disk. I am on Windows 10. This is especially remarkable, since I store very little of my "live" data on the computer -- almost everything is on USB drives and cloud.
How do I find out where all the storage is being used?
One possibility is that I create and delete accounts on this computer fairly regularly. When I delete accounts, I sometimes get the message "Cannot delete account for a user that is logged on" -- but that account is logged off, and it gets deleted anyway, so I haven't worried about it. Might there be files that aren't getting deleted?
This is NOT the "100% disk usage" thing with several other articles, relating to Windows Search and Superfetch -- the disk is not busy, it is full.
Please start your answer right at the beginning of the instructions -- I used to be a very sophisticated programmer, but lost hold of Windows somewhere around Windows XP. I removed all the Charms and other Windows 8 crapware. Please start your instructions to me with the START button or with WindowsKey/R or something else that is unambiguous and not likely removed.
Thank you.
