Freeing Up Disk Space
My free disk space is now less than 40%. I do regular maintenance but I don't notice any space getting freed up. Can someone please provide me with some good tips on how to free up disk space? Thanks, your input will be appreciated.

It would be helpful to know the capacity of your hard drive. 40% free is hardly a problem with a 250GB drive but would be with a 20GB drive. One possible way of freeing disk space is to lower the amount of space reserved for System Restore. Go to Start|Control Panel|System|System Restore tab, click Settings and use the slider to reduce the reserved space.
