Windows 10: Used space is more than size of all files

MrDuck128 · Jan 21, 2023

Problem occurs on my C drive 400GB SSD. It shows 210GB of used space, but the files including hidden occupy only ~110GB. My system protection is set to 2% and occupies only 2.6GB. I already used disk clean-up and there is only 10MB left to clean.What can be taking up the remaining 100GB? https://imgur.com/a/JOsAwyIhttps://imgur.com/a/aA9LVJLhttps://imgur.com/a/eqEXS59https://imgur.com/a/UkFgg3oI'm on Windows 10, on the latest update KB5019275Note:Using links because "Something went wrong" when I try to upload here

Directory Size Utility

First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...

maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?

Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)

maybe you also add export list to excel?

there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?

and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?

Increase image file upload size cap

So my suggestion (assuming W1zz wanted to do this out of kindness of his heart,) is this:

Increase upload limit to 10-20MB max.

Institute a storage limit of 2-5MB max.

Use PHP's GD library to convert uploaded images to JPEG or PNG.

PNGs tend to look nicer than JPEGs, but use more space. Probably preferable for smaller images or images requiring transparency.

JPEG tends to be very flexible when it comes to quality and the amount of compression. PHP's GD lib gives you control over this.

So long as the image is uploaded in a format GD can read which includes most commonly used formats, it may not be unrealistic to re-store it in a different format. It's also not unrealistic to use GD to scale the image as well.

that's a good idea

Font and Icon size

Hi Vickie,

It's possible that some settings were accidentally changed, affecting your icons and font size. We'd like to learn more about your concern so that we could provide the proper resolution. We just have a few questions for you:

Which build version of Windows 10 is on your computer? To check, click
Start, type winver, and press Enter. For example, 14393.1066.

What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

As initial recommendation, we suggest following these steps to change the icon size:

Right-click on an empty space on your desktop.

Select View.

Choose Medium icons or Small icons, whichever you prefer more.

Additionally, you can change the display size of texts and other items by following these steps:

Right-click on an empty space on your desktop.

Click Display settings.

Under Change the size of text, apps, and other items, drag the slider over to 100%.

If the slider is already on 100%, click Advanced display settings.

Under Resolution, choose the Recommended option from the drop-down choices.

We'll wait for your response to our questions and the results of the initial troubleshooting.
