Hard Disk Space Problems
Hi i'm new and not in any way a computer whiz. I wanted to free up some space on my hard disk so i deleted a few games a odd bits here and there, but for some reason it didn't make any difference to the free space. I made sure the recycle bin was empty and i don't create backups. I also somehow lost 5GB of memory overnight! I ran a disk cleanup and virus scan. It picked up 2 Trojans and got rid of them for me, but i still have the same amount of memory. I don't understand how deleting 3 games that were over a few GB's each didn't make any difference to my hard disk space. Can anyone help?
My laptop also failed to configure windows updates twice on startup. I hope there's nothing seriously wrong.
