So recently I noticed this box that appears and tells me that I have low disk space in my C: drive. I have not downloaded anything big, or any files within the past 3 months or so. I really don't understand why it says this. So I do what it says, I clean up my files on the computer. I also deleted all of my documents -- trying to allow for space. This has yet to do anything or make any sort of impact to my C: drive. It is ridiculously annoying because I keep trying things, but nothing works. I'm thinking I may need to restore my whole hard drive. Any suggestions? Has this occurred to anyone else? I am so confused. I can't save anything to my computer and it's killing me! Please help me!!

I would appreciate it!!!

When I uninstall a game or program that takes up a lot of space, my hard drive doesn't show an increase in size like it should until I turn off windows system restore function. You might want to try that out and see if it frees up the space on you hard drive.
