hello. while i srated running wipe free space i opened up my computer and the first thing i noticed was the c drive had increased considerably on free space. during running of wipe free space my pc frooze. I just went back to c drive and it has decreased even more. by about 40g. #
I just wanted to add a possible other fix that has worked for me in the past.
Having used another disk wiper program and as an accident shutdown during the process my hard drive had little to no space left.
To correct the issue I simply used windows search (not 4.0) to use "search by file size" then I typed in first 100,000KB (100MB or greater) then 500,000KB (500MB or greater) because most windows files will never exceed either of those and most users won't have to many files other than possible game files or movies that exceed those amounts.
Also click advanced in search using the "search hidden files"
The search will display the largest files once completed. Simply sort by file size, find the biggest file with random numbers and letters, look at the directory it is placed in, then delete all like files around that size range within that directory.
