Everybody knows how to use the built-in Windows Disk Cleanup tool to free up hard drive space. But is it possible to free up even more disk space without having to use any other tools? The answer is Yes!

  1. Go to Computer and right-click the hard drive
  2. Select Properties
  3. On the General tab click Disk Cleanup
  4. Then go to More Options tab, find System Restore and click Clean up

Old system restore points can take up a lot of valuable disk space. And anyway, you don’t need them all, so deleting them will be a good idea.  Don’t worry, the most recent restore point will still be there in case of an emergency.
