How to clean up and regain some hard disk space如何清理和恢復一些硬盤空間

Recently I realized that my three (3) year old machine is running slowly.最近，我意識到我的三（3）歲的電腦運行緩慢。 Every time I launch an application, it would take at least a minute for it to load up.每次我啟動一個應用程序，也需要至少一分鐘，它裝載了。

Checking through the available space on my hard disk, I see that only 2.5 GB out of 74.4 GB space is available.通過檢查可用空間在硬盤上，我看到只有2.5 GB的出74.4 GB的可用空間。 This must be the reason why my machine is running slowly.這必須是為什麼我的機器運行速度慢。 Ever since I started using the machine, it has not been cleaned up in anyway.自從我開始使用計算機，但並沒有被清理的動搖。 Short to say, everything goes in, nothing comes out!短地說，一切順利的，沒有出來！

At the same time, I also needed some space to install a database to work on some programming assignment.同時，我也需要一些空間來安裝一個數據庫，對一些編程工作任務。 Since the size of the database is at least 10 GB, I need to clean up and regain enough hard disk space to be able to start work.由於在規模龐大的數據庫至少10 GB的，我需要清理，恢復足夠的硬盤空間才能開始工作。 Otherwise, I'm stuck as I can't go screaming to my boss..否則，我堅持我不能去尖叫我的老闆.. I need a new server with big hard disk capacity!我需要一個新的服務器的硬盤與大容量！ Times are bad and I'm sure my boss won't spend money on a new server just like that.時代是壞的，我相信我的老闆不會花錢在新服務器上就這樣。

With this challenge, the only thing I could do is to delete unwanted files and backup the necessary ones to an external HDD.這一挑戰，我唯一可以做的是刪除不需要的文件和必要的備份到外部硬盤。 This task itself is a challenge because I do not know where the big files are.這項任務本身就是一個挑戰，因為我不知道大文件。 Imagine 3 years of data sitting deep inside folders.想像一下，3年的數據文件夾坐在內心深處。 How would I know which folder holds to the big files?怎麼會，我知道這個文件夾包含的大文件？

Then I remember a tool by the name of然後，我記得一個工具的名稱 SC-DiskInfo資深大律師，DiskInfo introduced by a SQL Server instructor many years ago.介紹了一個SQL Server老師多年前。 The good thing about this tool, it displays your machine's disk space usage and shows which folders take up the most space.好在這個工具，它會顯示您的計算機的磁盤空間使用情況，並顯示哪些文件夾佔用的大部分空間。 So yes, you will be able to easily spot the folder which takes up the most space.所以，是的，你可以很容易地發現的文件夾中佔據了大部分空間。

Running the tool, I can easily drill down deeply into folders which were taking up most of the space.運行該工具，我可以很容易地深入深入到其中的文件夾佔用的大部分空間。 From the screenshot above, obviously most of the big files are residing in the Desktop folder.從上面的截圖，顯然是大型文件是居住在該桌面文件夾。 Drilling in, I found some sub folders storing some music and video files which I have forgotten that the files even exist.鑽井，我發現了一些子文件夾存儲了一些音樂和視頻文件，我忘記了這些文件存在。 All these while, those big files were sitting in there clogging up and slowing the machine down without me realizing it.而所有這些，那些大文件是坐在那兒堵塞和減緩機，又不我意識到這一點。 Shucks, I should have ran this tool much earlier.胡說，我應該執行這個工具要早得多。

So from just 2.45 GB, I managed to regain some hdd space to about 21.5 GB.因此，從只有2.45 GB的，我設法收復一些硬盤空間約21.5 GB的。

Next, I ran the Windows XP Disk Cleanup utility.接下來，我運行 Windows XP的磁盤清理工具。 From there, I also managed to get another 17 GB!從那裡，我還成功地讓另外17 GB的！ See the screenshot below:見下面的截圖：

You will be surprise to see how hugh the temporary files are on your machine.你會驚奇地看到如何龐大的臨時文件在您的計算機。 Just a note that the clean up process can take quite a while.只是注意清理過程可能需要相當長的一段。 Mine took at least 3 hours to run.礦用了至少3小時運行。

Anyway, I'm happy now that my machine performs better and faster.無論如何，我現在很快樂，我的機器性能更好，更快。 For those of you needing to clean up and regain some hard disk space, give對於那些你需要清理，恢復一些硬盤空間，讓 SC-DiskInfo資深大律師，DiskInfo and Windows XP Disk Cleanup a try now and do let me know how much space you've regained.和Windows XP的磁盤清理現在嘗試做讓我知道你多大的空間已經恢復。
