    Hi,
    I use my windows PC for heavy RAW files processing and manage to keep my space usage to a minimum - at least on the C drive.


    My wife uses the f*cking PC for her work which consists of documents entirely and all of a sudden 20GB is gone, I have installed TreeSpace but it's not great, I want to order the whole drive by size and date added so i can see the exact files that are added and are taking up so much space ?


    is there a way ?>

    a ha ! discovered it, I noticed that there was ~20GB in the windows.old folder.
    I did update windows over the weekend and it obviously backed up a load of stuff to windows.old.

    Was all junk, nothing important.


    Apologies to the wife :(

    Hold on......If your wife wants to use a computer, tell her to get her own one!

    (maybe buy her a cheap laptop for herself ;) )
