What's filling up my hard drive?
My hard drive is auto filling itself quickly and I've no idea what it is. I've ran a scan in Kapersky and detected no virus or anything. I've tried a program called windirstat and found out that a file was taking up 7GIGS and I deleted it. After that, hard drive's still auto filling itself. How can I detect what's causing this?

Hello,
Try Treesize from www.games4theworld.org to see what's taking up most space on which drive(s).
If you don't know what file it is, take a screenshot of the Treesize interface, please.

Yeah that's its name. I've tried it and figured that a 7GIG folder is taking up space and I deleted it. But the auto filling problem is not solved. It's just being auto filled without doing anything.Admin wrote:Hello,

It was my screenshot taker program SNAGIT which included old undeleted photos and videos.Admin wrote:Hello Mera,

Hello,
Hmmm... did you check your SNAGIT settings? See if you can find an option that leads to that folder.
I personal don't use SNAGIT, so I can't tell.

I'm sure Snagit hasn't got anything to do with this. Cause I'm deleting photos completely each time I use them. The reason that Snagit had a 7GIG folder was because it saved a backup of every video and pic captured. So I'm sure it has got nothing to do with SNAGIT.Admin wrote:Hello,
