Default C drive running out of space


First of all try to 'free up some disk space '
(http://www.winvistaclub.com/t73.html)from your C Drive. Next you may
have to see if you can 'Extend the C partition'
(http://www.winvistaclub.com/t11.html) using Vista's Disk Management
utility. You can not merge partitions in Vista with this Utility. Also
note that you can extend only to the right; if you are desirous of
extending the partition to the left, you may have to use a 3rd party
utility, like Acronis.

Hi,

As described in the subject line, i am facing a c drive running out of
space
problem. The following are the details related to the same:

OS : Windows Vista Home Premium
SP: Service Pack 1 Installed
Total hard disk capacity: 100GB
C Drive: 20 GB
D Drive: 80 GB

I thought it could be because of the program files folder that i am
facing
the issue but found that its size is 2.43GB. All the other folders are
less
but windows folder is taking the maximum share i.e. 14 GB. All the
programs i
have installed in the PC, i have taken enough care to specify their
installation path to drive D. Still i am facing this problem.

Drive C has about 60 GB free space. Is there any tool using which i
could
delete the partition so that i can get rid of this problem. Any other
suggestions are also welcome.

Thanks in Advance.

Pradeep
