Since you have limited hard disk space available, I don't see a lot of
solutions left. You could turn off System Restore and empty the Recycle
Bin, then optimize C: with either of the defraggers I suggested
yesterday. Also, when/if you turn SR back on, make sure you're only
monitoring drive C:, as monitoring D: and E: will eat up more disk
space. Since I keep regular backups, and like to keep my 5 OS
partitions small (7 gig at the most), I keep SR turned off all the time.
The main reason is SR has failed me and too many clients when it was
really needed, so it's a false sense of security IMO, so why depend on
it at all. A good backup schedule is by far the best protection.
Thanks for the tips. Yes, I do all those. IT disabled SR. I am not sure
why. Maybe they also think SR is useless.
