@TairikuOkami ok, will try out those commands as well, thanks! Yes I've been using CCleaner for some time now, and certainly as soon as I started using my current laptop. It usually only cleans between 1-2.5GB at a time. Perhaps I need to select more compartments for it to clean? But as I said, I worried about it cleaning essential things and causing any harm.
lemonteajunkie ... You might want to check and clean up the Storage Volume Shadow Copies in Device Manager.
Open Device Manager / View / Show Hidden Devices
Expand Storage Volume Shadow Copies ... if you have any greyed out Generic Volume Shadow Copy, just right click on each of the greyed out ones and uninstall.
Note: This doesn't help regain any HDD space, just good practice IMO when deleting/cleaning up restore points.
