how to reduce size (disk space) of windows 8?
- by humanityANDpeace
This questions is about what things I can do to reduce the size that Windows 8 uses.
Background For example:
At present and with only one programm installed (MS Access 2007) I have a about 15GB of my harddisk space used. I have little space (its a 17 GB partition on a SSD disk).
I would like solutions that are like:
Remove files not really needed (drivers not actually needed in the system)
Help files not really needed (documentation)
pagefile.sys (assuming I would have 4GB ram and no real need for swaping)
hiberfil.sys (used for hibernate and sleep... I need that. though I would regain about 4GB space)
At best I would like to delete mostly files that I would most likely not need. Though I have no good idea where to start there.
Since my setup (hardware will not change) I would be willing to delete all the drivers that windows 8
has for hardware I do not have....
The question is about ways to reduce the space that Windows 8 uses.
