Hi!

I have 120gb ssd with no games or applications installed on it. The only thing that should be taking up space is my OS (w10). 60gb of the 120 are filled with something and I can't seem to figure out what. I have used multiple clean up programs and none of them have helped. I have also used WinDirStat, but I don't see any large files taking up space. This was not a problem when I first got the ssd and the OS can't take up 60gb. I have also deleted old windows backup installations.

Thanks for your help :).

Hibernation, turn it OFF from a command prompt.

- The first step is to run the command prompt as administrator. In Windows 10, you can do this by right clicking on the start menu and clicking "Command Prompt (Admin)"
- Type in "powercfg.exe /h off" without the quotes and press enter. If you typed it in correctly, the cursor will simply start at a new line asking for new input
- Now just exit out of command prompt


pagefile, leave it alone for now.


Next, show us a screencap of your current Disk Management window.

The two big pink things in the middle are Hibernation and pagefile.
