problem freeing harddrive space

[Guest Honeysweet]

Hi everyone..

 

I have a maybe stupid question..

 

I am trying to free up hard drive space, yet it seems although I dont have

many things listed when I look at my add/remove programs in the control

panel,

I am still low on harddrive space..and I frequently get a notice saying so.

I do have things listed in my add/remove that I simply dont know what they

are but they have always been there such as Turbo Project v.4 and NetActive

Launcher (what are those and do I need to keep them?)

 

What is a good way to free up hard drive space, since I am obviously

overlooking something somewhere...

 

Ive uninstalled everything I think I can take off safely..

 

What else could be lurking? Where is the best place to look?

 

 

Thanks in advance..

Tarcia

Click "Start", "Programs", "Accessories", "System Tools", "Disk Cleanup".

A couple of freeware utilities which might help locate what's taking up

space.

 

A) WinDirStat - http://windirstat.info/

 

B) Dfolder Size v3.2 - http://www.freewareweb.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?ID=620

 

Both work well with WinMe.

In addition to the previous suggestions, take a look at your picture files

(.bmp, .tif, jpeg etc.)
