I'm struggling with my laptop running Windows 10 because my C drive is completely full. I've tried checking the C:WindowsTemp folder, but I can't even open it without getting a memory error. I've also attempted to uninstall some applications to free up space, but I keep getting errors 2503 and 2502 during the process. Does anyone have tips on how to get my laptop functioning properly again?

Have you tried using tools like WinDirStat or WizTree to find out where all your space is being used? They can give you a visual representation of your disk usage, which is really helpful. Also, make sure to run Disk Cleanup and select 'System Files' for a thorough clean-up. That should help a bit!
You can try deleting all files and folders in these directories:
- C:UsersAppDataLocalTemp
- C:WindowsTemp
Afterward, run Disk Cleanup. If you keep having issues uninstalling apps, consider booting into 'Clean Boot' mode to try again. Here's more info on that: [Microsoft Clean Boot Guide](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135)
I did the 'Clean Boot,' but I still can't uninstall the apps I need. The same errors (2503 and 2502) keep popping up!
I've done that a few times, but I don’t even have enough space to download WizTree again. Right now, my D drive is the only one with space!
