Hi, I'm running short of space on my Windows 10 64 bit PC. I carried out a clean install of windows 10 approx 2 months ago. I have a 256 SSD with 16 GB Ram and the page size is set at 25466 MB. Is this too big.
I also run Disk clean-up and then system files, and it showed up 6GB under Windows update clean-up, can this be deleted.
The recommended page file size is to just let Windows 10 manage it.
Yes, Windows Update files can be deleted.
Another way to free drive space is to disable hibernation:
Code:powercfg -h off
Consider these default settings:
Place the dot for C: System managed size
Check the box to Automatically manage paging file size for all drives
Reboot to maintain settings.
To free up drive space see this tutorial:
Free Up Drive Space in Windows 10
Hi and thanks to all who responded, I have been able to claw back space and now have 90GB free. Using Wiztree I have found "NO Extensions" taking up 7GB data. Is this normal and how can you identify the files.
Also if I disable hibernation( I assume you use this command, powercfg h off, on an elevated prompt) which is taking up 8GB space, do I loose the ability to put the PC in to sleep mode. I dont have a hibernation mode on the Power button
