Step-By-Step
1. Fire up Windows' Disk Cleanup.
Double-click My Computer, right-click the icon for your C: drive, and choose Properties. Then click the Disk Cleanup button.
Windows will show you a list of types of deletable files, along with the space that can be reclaimed from each. Highlight each category for an explanation of what will be swept away, and check the ones you want cleaned out. Then click OK. Windows will ask you to confirm your choice, and then it will delete the files for you.
Repeat this step for each hard disk in your PC.
