8. Disk Space Management
Daily computer activity inevitably leads to large number of useless files accumulating
on your computer, even more so if you are an active PC user. You may download
gigabytes of music and video files, documents and applications from the Internet and
not even realize how many identical files or files that you don't really need any more
are stored on your hard disks. With AVG PC Tuneup you can organize documents,
media, and other files to increase free space on the disks of your computer.
8.1. Find and Delete Identical Files
Keeping unnecessary duplicate files on your computer means wasting valuable hard
disk space. Duplicate File Finder will help you to get rid of those files. With this utility
you can increase free space by up to 50%.
To launch Duplicate File Finder, click on the Remove duplicates link of the Free Up
Space section. Select the folders where you wish the program to look for identical files
and specify which file types the program should look for. After the scan is finished you
will be able to select the duplicate files you want to delete.
8.2. Organize Files and Folders
Disk Explorer is designed to help with tracking disk space usage. This tool will show
the largest files and folders on your disks, so you can free up additional space by
archiving them onto a CD or DVD.
