Where Did My 35GB Go on My C Drive?
Asked by

Hey everyone! I've been digging into my C drive and it feels like I've lost around 35 gigabytes of space. I've checked all my files, including hidden folders, but I just can't figure out where this space is being taken up. Do you think this could be a virus or something else? Any tips on how to track it down?

Have you checked your system for malware? Sometimes, unwanted software can eat up your disk space. If you suspect malware, looking up a malware removal guide might be a good move! Just make sure to scan your system regularly after that.

By the way, how much RAM does your PC have? It’s helpful to know since sometimes system files can take up space when your RAM is low. If you have 32 GB, your system should be running smoothly, but back to your issue, have you tried using disk cleanup or tools to analyze your disk space?
