I'm trying to clear storage space on the Local C drive. It has 20Gb of storage and somehow I used 19GB? This is a mystery because I'm only using it to run an application. I viewed all the files for any big files I can get rid of ( most are in Kb), defraged and optimized the disc but barely freed up any space.
I'm running the 7.0 version of VBox with windows 10.
Please advise. Thanks.

Re: How to free Storage Space on Local C drive?
Lots of modern OSs use 10 to 20 GB of space.
Since you speak of a 20GB drive designated C (and physical drives nowadays are way bigger than 20GB) I partially deduce that you're referring to a Windows 10 guest or VM. It is quite reasonable for Windows 10 to take 19GB.
Yet you post in Mac OS Guests.....

Ok, I didn't consider the 19 GB it takes to install Windows 10. Then I need to increase storage.scottgus1 wrote: ↑28. Jan 2024, 01:44 Lots of modern OSs use 10 to 20 GB of space.
