So I started deleting my oldest files (your childhood.) That was 20 years ago and now I can't remember anything before age 16. I used to remember sitting in the high chair as a baby. Now my earliest memory is screwing Mary Jane Rottencrotch in the back seat of my '51 Buick. I probably masturbated a lot before that but I can't remember it. tsw 8.5, KaptCrunch, hxtr and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

If you upgrade it keeps everything from Win 7-8.1 so that you can revert if you feel the need. Here's how to get rid of the huge folder that it sticks everything in. http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-delete-the-windows-old-folder-from-windows-10/ What do you have installed? 100gig is ALOT of games and junk.

HELL to the NO!!! lol I have my OS and the 2 main games that I play on my SSD boot drive.Everything else goes on a 2tb WD Black hdd.You should have a noticable jump in performance if you keep your boot drive around 1/2 full.That's where I like to keep mine.I definitely notice differences in OS boot times and Game loading times when my Boot HDD gets a bit full. Take a look at this beast.10TB HDD only $799.99 That would keep your boot hdd clean for a while.Imaging how much porn you could cram on that thing. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA5EM4653707 Edited May 26, 2016 by J3st3rXI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might be little people but they are huge files. Also get CCleaner to it get all your browser temps data cleaned out. And if you really want to know where your data is or what is taking up the room. One program to does the job and it is free. It will show you graphicly where your data is. Pick a file type like .mp3 and it will show you all the MP3's on your drive.https://windirstat.info/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WinDirStat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
