Run %temp% and delete all the temp files. Skip when it says if one is in use. There you go! This is how to do it without a whole 10 min vid. You're welcome :)
@@asadmahmood2007 Without all the ads like the one that BLASTS in your face and ears
thankyou for this
I don't know why your going around saying this to people. Its not just a ten minute video for nothing, he's actually showing us how to do it. Not everyone understands by text and needs to visionally see instead. Plus he shows multiple methods. If you had a problem with the time, stop complaining and go find a less informative short one idiot. @@asadmahmood2007
Legend says you're still answering in comments here
*also ty for faster laptop*
Thanks for the feedback Niko
Btw im probably gonna need to factory reset my laptop, and i dont have some passwords, cuz its my dads old laptop xD. You have any idea how i can surpass this? Also i dont have another pc/laptop.
So grateful to you for this video. I just kept watching my disk space get lower and lower, saying I only had 295 MB free of 114 GB, and I work entirely from my flash drive and keep nothing that could take up any such amount of space on the computer itself. To discover this is a game changer. Thank you so, so much.
Nah, this guy needs more subscribers than he already has because he gives basic information that anybody could easily follow! I don't know much I can thank you enough.
Thank you soo much. I’ve searched online everywhere to clear enough space to factory reset a laptop after many hours I came across your video and it’s sorted it out perfectly.
Good to know it helped you out, thanks so much for the feedback!
Used this video a year ago and forgot how to do it again, it’s nice that I can always come back to this. 👍
Me too

About time someone made a clear and precise piece on how to clear wasted space. Clear and precise. There is still some in disk clean up that refuse to be cleaned up, but at least I have managed to release an enormous amount of wasted space. Many, many thanks.

2 and a half years later I find this video, I imagine I will return in another 2 and a half years when I forget how to do all this again, thankyou for upload this really helped!

@@EasyTechs Hi
@@EasyTechs i
A wonderful video for me. Very very thorough. Step by step tutorial for me to clean and enhance my laptop. I appreciate it. Thank you so much
Thank you, you gave different methods in one video, it's really helpful!
Temporary files: 3:20 I noticed in your example that only 'Empty recycle bin' was selected, whereas in my pc it defaulted to selecting ALL the boxes in my Temp files. It's probably not important, but thought I'd mention it as - for whatever reason - some people might not want to delete all the data being automatically selected within this utility.
Thanks for the excellent video - I'll now go and tackle my 86 year old mum's slow-slow-slow laptop..
Very Informative video and a detailed one. Thank you very much, it is really helpful.
I am brand new to DAW and soft soft - these tutorials are excellent an very helpful to get soone like up and running. Appreciate
YOOOOOO this man bro this low-key worked I was trying lots of other methods but they didn't work but this dude bro TY man
Thank you! My local disk was nearly full, and now I have about 102 GB of free space available on my C drive. You've helped me greatly. God bless you, and keep up the great work!
Good to know it helped you out Jeff, bless you too
Very Easy to follow and very thorough, good video.

TYSM it run my laptop smoothly this is so recommended for out of storage devices.
Good to know it helped you out, thanks so much for the feedback!
Thanks for this video. It helped get my system to run a lot faster than it did before.
There is just 1 thing that I think everyone should know though. As you keep going back into "Disk Cleanup" each time to delete files, you are actually deleting everything in your "Download" file under "This PC". So, if there is something there that they want to keep, they better make a folder in "Documents" and move all that content there.
I only know this because I followed the steps for Disk Cleanup until I had 0 left to delete. After I did all that, I restarted my PC (Started up so much faster) and went to my "Download" file to start some videos I had downloaded before following these steps and they were all gone, as well as downloaded programs .exe files I keep for future purposes or to re-install on another device. All of that was deleted, not angry, because those programs still operate (Thank goodness), now I have to remember what all of the programs I installed are. Yes, it is a little funny, just happy that it didn't affect them. Very happy that I didn't delete important items.
Excellent video... I forgot how fast my computer really is. Just follow and do everything he says to clean it up....Thank you

Miirasha download windirstat and install it through there
Uninstlal*
Miirasha go to run, and either delete everything in %temp% or everything in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution
try to unhid the files which are hidden
you can click on "size" that shows how much space it takes

I recently cloned my C drive from my previous SSD. Now there's this 1gb folder named /boot in C drive, is that necessary? can I delete that?
don't delete temp folder file. if you delete it, then your pc some software will not work.
i just deleted all my memes and everything
Thats what I am afraid of, deleting files or apps i use that maybe someone else put in my computer that that gave me, that maybe they didn't pay for and use a free download 🤔
Thanks so much, sir,
My PC was so slow and I have many temporary files. Thanks for helping me out to recover so much storage
Ik its 2021 but this helped me so much i hope u have a great day
Im tired about seeing the %temp%
And prefetch...
