You didn't mention a "Duplicate Files" check. I found several big videos I'd twice copied into different folders.

Also, I recommend a Defrag after any big clean out. It helps aggregate all the little newly freed-up HDD pockets.

[tobiazzzz]

thank you so much, went from 50gb to 160!

[bluebety]

exactly what i needed. Its not a scam if anyone searching comments to see if its legit.

[Boystarx]

I really like the windows theme you are using, please advise how to get this theme...🙏

[TheFireAmongUs]

I have a situation that has been driving me nuts for months. All my USB ports are working and when I plug in some devices like a wireless mouse & keyboard or a flash drive, no problem, my PC detects them and they work fine. The problem only comes when I plug in my webcam. The power light is lit on my camera but the device manager doesn't detect my camera. I often have to scan for changes or unplug and plug again into the port until my PC detects the camera. I have updated drivers and even bought a new webcam, thinking my old one was faulty, but it still happens. Any ideas?
