Reclaim Window 2008 R2 disk space

My C partition run out of space. I have already

1. remove serivce patch under c:\windows\$NTUninstallxxx
2. free up space under c:\widnows\softwareDistribution
3. Remove files under temporary folder

But that does help too much.

I am thinking of change the size of page file (current 6Gb) to 200Mb. Any comment on that ?

Apprecipate any suggestion on reclaiming space on Window 2008 R2

If you have another partition move the page file from C to that partition.

Is this a physical or virtual box?

This is a physical. What is min page size on C ?

Beside that, any way to reclaim space on C drive ?

Tkx

Recommended is 1.5x RAM. So 4 Gb of ram would equal 6 Gb page file.

If you are running Win2008 R2 Sp1, to reclaim space, open a admin command prompt and run:

Dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded

As C drive is running out of space, can I set the page file to 300MB on C drive and set the remaining pagefile in D drive ? Any comment ?
