    Not much files in C drive but it shows only few Gb storage left!!

    CBS 103.6 GB..
    LOGS 103.6GB...

    what these files are? can i delete this?

    Pls see the picture attached.

    First let take a different look at things. I have no idea how well SpaceSniffer works.
    103 gb of CBS log is a huge, very huge amount.

    Complete the tutorial by Golden.

    My concern is that program is calling them CBS logs but are they really CBS logs. One or two GB of CBS logs is a lot. I don't know how one would go about gathering that many CBS logs.

    From my system.

    Logs are logs. If you care to look at them, then they serve a purpose. Else they are just dead meat.

    Wolfgang is correct if they really are logs they can be removed.

    Here is a program that I know has worked for many and I trust.
