Post subject: problem freeing harddrive space Add to elertz Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsme>general (more info?)
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?

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

In addition to the previous suggestions, take a look at your picture files
(.bmp, .tif, jpeg etc.)
