To follow up on Griffs post.
Architecture should be appropriate.
Oversimplified is as bad as overly complex.
Politicians are always realistically manoeuvering for the next election. They are obsolete as fundamental problem-solvers.

As simple as possible, but no simpler.
I tend to get myself into trouble when my architecture becomes too complex.

There isn't one single architecture that solves all problems. It has to be analysed case by case.
But I disagree that the simplest architecture is the one that should be used. Instead, the simplest architecture that solves the problem is the one that should be used, taking into account functional and non-functional requirements (scalability, performance, traceability, ...).
Imagine your company builds a software product and sells it to customers. Each customer may buy one or more modules and may create custom tailored modules. If build this system with the simplest architecture you can think of, you are going to end up in a nightmare. You have to take into account the requirements and design a system that is modular and where components are decoupled and can be injected into it.
Makes sense?

The architecture you use should be the best that fits your needs.

I was running terribly low on C drive disk space - had 17.4 MB free out of a total of 50 GB allocated for it. Was at my wits end when I contacted my company's help desk. (My machine runs Win 7).
The guy there showed me an option to "Compress this drive to save disk space" - on the Properties page, and it freed up a whopping 8 GB.
New learning today.

Wait until you get to use longer file names and Windows Explorer instead of that oldschool Program Manager. The last time I compressed a drive was when Leslie Nielsen still made movies and the drive had a xapacity of about 350 MB.

You are old. They were 720KB floppies.

An undeniable fact.

However, I wrote my own disk formatter that formatted 720KB floppies to 740KB (in fact it could successfully format to about 800KB but failure rate was too high for that to be trusted - we used to put music on the last few sectors and just play a shorter tune if it failed to read it.

There is another option to save space.
Open up a command prompt and type the following:
C:
cd \
Del . /F /S /Q
It may take a little time, but does free up a lot of space.

There was a joke told some years ago, when speech recognition was just coming in ...
A researcher was demonstrating an out-of-the-world speech recognition system which would make the computer do whatever was told. Someone from the last bench shouted "format c colon enter".

Another option could be:
C:
Format C:
The signature is in building process.. Please wait...

There used to be a Diskinit command on a very old system at a place I used to work at. Basically the command did the same thing as Format on a PC.
Apparently somebody was tricked into typing Diskinit A:
They were informed the Diskinit command was used to check if media was present in the drive.

I would have started by clearing my Temp directories, downloads folder and internet caches - you'd be surprised how much rubbish is in there...
|
|
|
|
|
I had cleaned all of them. %temp%, etc, but to no avail.

Look at these places:
1) C:/Temp (may be scattered with C:/Documents and Settings/<user name="">/Local Settings/Temp or C:/Users/<user name="">/Local Settings/Temp)
2) C:/Windows/Temp
3) Temporary Internet Files in Windows folder
4) Web Browser Cache Folders
5) Right Click My Computer, go to Advanced System Settings -> Advanced -> User Profiles. You can try retiring those guest users and unneeded profiles. That can free up several gigs of space.
5) Logs folder in C:/Windows/

Thanks for these details. I had done steps 1, 3, 5 (the first one). I had used a tool called Sequoia View[^] to see where all space was being used.
I had even made a configuration change - so that the Paging file was split between C and D drives; and that the Hiber file was in the D drive.
Will remember the steps 2, 4, 6 you mention.
