190 gb OS (C) partition showing 95gb of files with 15gb free???

[provlima]

I am trying to find more storage space on my 750gb desktop hard drive.

The OS (C) partition is 191 GB with 15 GB of free space left. I have checked the contents of this partition and
am able to find a total of only 80 gb which comprise of the following large folders

User Files 48gb
Windows 15gb
Program Files 8gb
Recovery 9gb there are many smaller files that add up to less than 1gb

The total folders on this partition add up to about 81gb yet the drive is showing only 15gb of free space left
There are 95gb unaccounted for......What am I missing here?

Run WizTree (free) to see what it shows, they have a portable version available.
Antibody Software - WizTree finds the files and folders using the most disk space on your hard drive

Move your data to the other partition, you shouldn`t be storing any data on C
