Hopefully this video helps you to free up space and remove the unimportant junk on your drives... Thanks for watching :)
👍 ¡ Adios, local user Vicki! 🤣
TechGumbo, is always only great. Total appreciation for the delivery aimed at me. TechTalk using TechTongue lingo is all well and good for the TechSavvy. TechTongue format usually makes my problems worse. Your TechGumbo format seems more, (armchair, home computer, casual user friendly), helpful. Thank you for your valued time, and conveyance considerations. I tell ALL who might benefit, to check out TechGumbo. Peace!

Another trick for the recycle bin something I do all the time is right click it go to properties and change the size to 100 mb this will save you tons of space especially if you do this for all the drives you have or just make i0

You offer a wealth of useful, informative information about Windows. Per your recommendation, I got rid of cClearner and purchased Glary Utilities (fantastic tool!). Keep up the great work.
I agree Brian, Glary Utilities is fantastic. Even without the recent issues with CCleaner, Glary is a superior tool.
helped alot
9:52 dang!
Lol
Thank You so much your a savior!
Can yo do a vid of how to use your other drive or u already have a video
Thank you for all of your time to make my Internet life easier!
Thanks
Awesome video very helpful. One question. After I used the 'disk cleanup', I realize I deleted my downloads folder contents by mistake. How can I recover those files? Is there a free recovery tool u are aware of that u can recommend?. A couple I've tried (e.g. Mini Tool & another one ) offers a 'free' trial, but it is bogus. WIth their free trial, u can run a scan to pull up the items u want to recover. But to actually recover those items & installed back on your 'C' drive, u have to pay up first. :(
i see that the most memory is taken by your temp files (800+mb),sadely,microsoft hasnt got a button yet to move the win cache and temp to another drive,this would be a great improvement to reduce wear on a SSD drive,too many reads and most certainly writes age your SSD rapidly,i already have my firefox cache in a folder on the D drive
that way it isnt written to the C drive (SSD),programs (apps) are installed on my C drive for app speed
You got me on the recycle bin!
You suggested to delete old Restore Points
Is it Recommended to created a Manual restore our self every month or at least once ?
Thanks
9:55 lmao got me
The last feature update added Downloads to disk cleanup. So, make sure to uncheck that if you don't want to empty that folder
vid very informative but how do you remove the items that Microsoft WILL NOT delete . It can be recovered with undelete even when deleted from recycle bin.
bro your a life savour i had a video with 57gb storage xD
I a dummy when it comes to this kind of stuff but I went step by step and I cleaned up a lot probably stuff I needed too lol but I was getting a message today of virtual low disk while I was working and then all got slow so I started to search and found you. Hope it al worked 😌
thank you so mcuh bro now i have space i have 90gb of space now thank you
do yo have a guide for 7 and 8.1? thank you
Do you think you might do something like this for Mac?
Not any time soon. Was going to get a new Mac Pro until I learned they are soldering most of the parts to the board. Plus the limited customization options and lack of innovation have been a deterrent for many people in recent years.
Need advice for uninstalling programs, I forgot to uninstall a program the proper way via settings or control panel (It just slips my mind every now and then), and just deleted it manually to the recycle bin. Now, the program is uninstalled, but still appears in my list of apps/programs. Previous windows versions would just remove the entry from the apps list if the installation is no longer present, but it does not do that anymore (Which is lame), and just give me an error or says it failed. Is there a way to remove the entry without re-installing the program, just to uninstall it again the proper way?
You could try looking for the uninstaller folder in. Program. files (x86). If that dont work then you probably have to re-install to uninstall.
@Techgumbo please how did u change your FILE EXPLORER to dark theme? I know windows start, task action center and title bars + backgorund can be change but could not find the way to change it to DARK. I saw the HIGH CONTRAST option but its too black/whitish.
If you are running Windows 10 Version 1809 or above then you can enable dark mode for windows by going to settings > personalisation, the option to use dark mode should be somewhere in there
settings/personalization/colors - choose your color
@@ValdezJu Sorry but I choose DARK MODE and FILE EXPLORER keeps being all white.
@@raphtlw yes raphael, I have windows 10 version 1803, it's pretty old u.u. EDIT: 1903 is need it to fix it, done and working good now!
i just upgraded to Windows 10, chose the keep nothing option and for some reason my hdd D: is 100 gb of 500gb left, help?
Microsoft might removed Disk Cleanup in a future Windows Feature Update
videos for registry edits and gpedits please
Hi Sir is it safe to delete appdata folder in drive C because it consume a large files about 90Gb ?
I am looking for the link for the automated cleanup, but can’t find any links, will you please advise?
Wow !! No man thanks you !!
How can you find duplicate files for deletion ? Enjoy your videos ....
What in your opinion is the best anti-virus software as your last comment in this video about CCleaner and
Avast, as I use Avast at the moment
Avast is fine as long that you dont use their clean up tool, same as Avg.
@terrialan3 Avast and Malwarebytes free.
I have found the built-in Windows Defender to be sufficient for the past few years with no issues on my primary computer running Windows 10. If you practice safe computing there should be no need for 3rd-party antivirus software. (The antivirus companies hate it when I say that. 😁) We did a video on this topic back in February.
@@BrettInTech You say that you dont need 3rd-party anti-virus software. Well i dont believe in using 3rd-party. Registry cleaners. It's just a money making scam.
Is cleaning the Windows registry useful? if we just did a little research, we’d come to realize that we base many of our beliefs on false information when it comes to computer performance.
I’ve fallen into this trap before, and if you have ever used CCleaner, chances are you’ve fallen for it too.
Removing old registry files of programs we previously un-installed.
Do we even know how the Windows registry works? Messing with your Windows registry without knowing what you are doing can trigger serious errors that can render Windows inoperable.
Cleaning up Windows Registry, does not speed up your computer.
The point is, why bother messing with the registry if those useless registry files do nothing to harm your PC performance in the first place? Running a registry cleaner is essentially a waste of time and runs the risk of only causing more problems.
Windows is designed to deal with the registry and any potential registry errors. If Microsoft felt that cleaning the registry would help your computer, they probably would have built it into Windows by now. They haven't because the registry doesn't need to be cleaned, despite what others may have told you. Registry keys do not take up enough space for us to even notice them nowadays. I actually have doubts about whether or not there was a computer performance boost from cleaning your registry 10 years ago.
Does anyone know what do to buy more storage for a windows 10 laptop I don't know what to type
Mega app gives 50 gbs free by signing up
Drop box gives you 20 or 25 gbs by linking your account from the phone to a laptop
Where can I get that first background image?
It's always a good idea to Install a file shredder to safely delete more sensitive files.
Like pictures of your wanger or Mrs Scratcher stepping out of the bath tub.

Do you want a faster Windows? Make sure you have at least 8 gigs of RAM and install an SSD. You will be amazed at the increase in speed.
