Is there another partition on the local machine with more free space? May
be time to add more storage?
There's not much that can be deleted to gain huge amounts of space. To
regain significant amounts of space quickly, review installed programs.
Uninstall those you do not use. Uninstall larger programs and reinstall
them to another partition.
Reset Temporary Internet Files, Recycle Bin and System Restore to
reasonable sizes. Their defaults are based on percentages and these can be
way too high when based on today's larger hard drives.
Disabling hibernate if it's not used will reclaim space occupied by
hiberfil.sys. Archive large multimedia files that do not get used often to
CD or DVD.
