Finding and Deleting Large Amounts of Data
In the following chapters, you will find out how you can use the TuneUp DiskSpace Explorer module to
obtain a rapid overview of the space taken up on your hard disks, in order to clean them up quickly and effi-
ciently.
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 com-
pletely 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 possibly wasted)?
TuneUp DiskSpace 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.
