Re: Low disk space

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Mark,

As Newell posted, there are several things that can provide you with more
free diskspace!
You can try to run disk cleanup on your drives to get more free space(right
click the partition you want to clean up, on the general tab choose disk
cleanup).

Whenever a Windows Update comes down there is a hiden folder created in the
C:\Windows folder called "$NtUninstallKB890859$" or whatever the update is.
Is it safe to delete or move these folders? We are having space issues on
our boot drive and need to free up some space.

Thanks,
Mark
