C:\Windows\winsxs takes up the lion's share of Vista. c:\ = 35.4 GB C:\pagefile.sys = 3.29 GB C:\MSOCache = .53 GB C:\Program Files = 3.52 GB C:\ProgramData = 1.35 C:\Users = 2.17 GB C:\Windows = 20 GB (where C:\Windows\winsxs = 9.72 GB and C:\Windows\System32 = 4.02 GB) The rest is scattered in various files and folders of less than 300 MB each. >Ditto your Program Files: do you have a lot of biggy apps installed? >Mine only take a trivial 0.9GB of disk space. D:\ = 13.3 GB D:\Program Files = 11.8 GB (227 apps, some folders have been uninstalled) |
