Finding and Deleting Large Amounts of Data
In the following chapters, you will find out how you can use the TuneUp DiskSpace Explorer module to obtain
a rapid overview of the space taken up on your hard disks, in order to clean them up quickly and efficiently.
Introduction
The capacity of modern hard disks and memory cards has increased tremendously over the last several years. At
the same time, the needs of the user have also increased to the point where we still manage to completely fill up
even the new larger drives.
Obviously, this development hasn't exactly made it easier to keep track of these huge quantities of data. With so
many files and nested folders, how is it possible to determine where the most space is being taken up (and pos-
sibly wasted)?
TuneUp DiskSpace Explorer helps you find the largest files. You can then archive them onto a CD, DVD or an
external hard disk, for example. It might be a good idea to make sure that you do not need these files any more
and decide to delete them instead. In this way, you can free up a vast amount of valuable disk space in one go.
First, you need to run an analysis of your disk space. Then you can use many functions from TuneUp DiskSpace
Explorer.
