Since they keep track of the files needed by older versions of system files, they must use significant disk space. Disk space is now measured in GB, can't imagine that these files are that large. I guess, I will not follow this idea. Thanks for all here. For me the thread can now be closed. |

Restore points can take gigabytes of disk space. They are stored in "System Volume Information" directory which is typically off limits even for administrators. Wikipedia has a page for both System Restore and Disk Cleanup (not Wizard, sorry). See this article to configure System Restore. And to start Disk Cleanup either type it in Start Menu or open Explorer, right click a drive, select Properties and click Disk Cleanup in the General tab. |

The error messages have come back. (But BOINC is not idle.) Time to correct this bug! |

Prime Grid is active these days with the Riesel problem, the one supposed to have a problem with storage on my PC. It is at over 80% of the current task. I let my PC do work for three projects, it is not a necessity for me. So don't talk to me like that. |
