    Rollback to Win 7


    I want to remove all of Win 10. I went back to Win 7 but it appears that some of Win 10 is still left.

    Roy,
    I don't know. I thought there may be some hidden files or other fragments. I need to free up space on my new SSHD which is only 128GB.

    Hi Glenn,
    Sounds like you've got a lot of downloaded films?

    Ive only used 30GB on my drive, basically just the OS and pictures.

    Have a look at your folders, see what you can move to another medium.

    Thanks Roy,

    My old computer had a large HD. I'm running 4 configurations of Virtual Pipe Organs + all related devices. I'll try to get more storage elsewhere.

    If you have a Windows.OLD folder that might be using a lot of space.
    You could use a program such as Wiztree (free) to more easily see where space is being used.
    They have a portable zip available, no install needed.
    Antibody Software - WizTree finds the files and folders using the most disk space on your hard drive
