Help! Computer has slowed down and C drive is full! was created by hilldweller
I updated my antivirus software a week or so ago - now Avast Pro (?) - so wondering if that might be the culprit.
How can I free up some space? I had a quick hunt around the C drive and found some sample pics and music files to delete, but not much else. This computer doesn't have downloaded games, music, videos etc - just documents and a few pics of cows
, plus a whole lot of 'system' files I'm scared to touch.
What do I do? TIA

Just for fun I checked my photo folder: 27,936 files. There are some others somewhere else as well.

I bought a Terrabyte of portable extra storage, into which I offload all sorts of things I don't need all the time - like the rest of the photos.
