The problem with growing hard drives is that you put so many files into them that it's hard to navigate.
Between the films, vacation photos or gigabytes of MP3s that you got from your cousin, you no longer know where these files are that are taking up your space for nothing and causing you to display the message insufficient disk space.
Luckily with WinDirStat, you will be able to graphically see which areas of your hard drive are overloaded. WinDirStat allows you to visualize the use of your different folders taking up the most space on the media.
Different information can be collected on each folder and file such as the percentage occupied, size, attribute, number of subfolders and files, or even the precise date of the last modification.
The analysis of your hard drives may not take long because WinDirStat go down each tree one by one, but this will let you know the cause of the message " insufficient disk space « .
It is possible to see the tree structure of your storage unit to determine what you can erase: restore point, cache, virtual machine, media files, etc.
