Tech Tip – Optimising Storage

REPAIRS & UPGRADES

You can make sure that you are making the best use of the space on your computer by using the Storage Sense feature in Windows 10.  Here’s how:

When enabled, Storage Sense will automatically work in the background when your PC is getting low on space to free-up space by ridding your system of unwanted, unused files and content in e.g., the temporary files folder, recycle bin, and the download folder.  To put Storage Sense to work for you:

– Go to Settings.

– Select “System” and “Storage”.

– Set the toggle to “On”.

– To clean up unused files now, rather than when space is running low, click on the “Configure Storage Sense or run it now” link.
