disk space issue on system drive

[4johnny]

For the last few months I have been running comfortably with 2GB free disk space on my C: and I just noticed yesterday that it has decreased to 1.5GB sometime over the weekend. I did a search for .log files and see nothing unusually large. No system changes or installations have been performed lately, and no new profiles have been created. I cannot seem to figure out where this missing space went. I also found a few large files while searching around my C: drive

Can anyone recommend a program or a method of keeping track of when/where disk space is consumed. I don't want this to happen again.

thanks

Have you tried running disk cleanup to get rid of unneeded files?

TreeSizeProfessional There is a free version that works well. I've purchased the Pro version for extra options and better performance as I use this tool often.
