How does the win7/win8.1 system disk grow smaller?

win7/win8.1 system disk gradually smaller method one:

1, the system sleep function in the C-packing directory to generate hidden system files: Hiberfil.sys, this file size just and their own physical memory is consistent, when you let the computer into hibernation, Windows in the system before shutting down all the memory content written to the Hiberfil.sys file. Then, when you turn the computer back on, the operating system uses Hiberfil.sys to put all the information back into memory, and the computer returns to its state before it shuts down. Windows does not delete the file, but it always puts it on the hard disk, which takes up a fraction of the disk space. With the sleep function can be, the sleep function can choose not to, this is the hard disk space occupants, turn off the sleep can release a considerable amount of space, your memory can be released how large, such as your memory is 4G, it can release 4G space.

2, Win7, Win8 the way to safely delete hibernation files:

Run Cmd.exe with administrator to open the Command line window and run: powercfg-h off;

Note that the C-disk residual hiberfil.sys hidden files can be removed after the hidden, directly deleted;

win7/win8.1 system disk gradually smaller method two:

First, the use of useless procedures

First check your program menu, there is no need to use the program, if you can uninstall them. The uninstall method is simple, just go to the Control Panel, open Add/Remove Programs to operate.

Two, easy to ignore folder

Because we are in a file operation, the default save location is "My Documents." The default location for My Documents is in C, so when the C disk is low, it is recommended that you check the size of the file in my document and transfer it to other partitions. The method is to open the My Documents Properties window, and then click the Move button in the Target Folder tab to select a new location.

Another easy to ignore folder is "Download (Downloads)". The usual download tool default storage path is C:download (Downloads) such folders, while ordinary users download the habit of using the default settings, so download a few blockbusters accounted for one or two g, so do not have to move the contents of these folders to other partitions, and form the downloaded files do not save to the download folder.

Third, transfer

We can also transfer some of the files that were originally stored in C on the default to other partitions, including virtual content, temporary files, and so on. The first is virtual memory, which takes up 1.5 times times more space than physical memory, for this suggestion you can open the System Properties window, in the Advanced tab, click the Settings button under Performance, click the Change button in the Advanced tab of the Open window, and then select C Partition to set it to no paging file. Then select D or another partition to redefine the size of the virtual memory.

For computers on the Internet, you can also transfer temporary file storage locations. Open the Internet Options command under the IE Tools menu, click the Settings button in the Temporary Internet Files area, and then click Move Folder to assign it to a location other than the C disk.

Iv. Hibernation and System Restore

Enabling hibernation and System Restore also takes up a lot of space, so we can turn it off. First go to Control Panel, open Power Options, and then cancel the "Enable Hibernate" item in the Hibernate tab. You can then open the System Properties window and select "Turn off System Restore on all drives" in the "System Restore" tab, which sometimes frees up around 1G of space.
