Disk size (C:)of Windows server 2008
I have windows server 2008, with C: partition of 100GB.
the disk is showing full. However when I take a look at the size of each folder including the hidden ones, the only folders that take space are Windows(15GB) and Program files folders(65GB) the rest are not really big enough to match the 20GB .
So which folders or files are filling up the 20GB?
any help?
Thanks

I did run it , but still not showing which files are using the 20GB
ASKER
I believe it is the pagefile.sys
How much disk space used it is reporting? It's right on top, below the filter.
It should be something like this: "C:\ - 95.3GB"

Yes on the top it says 105 GB
right under it it shows the exchange using about 65GB isn
on the bottom right pane, it shows all those small files under windows and their size, I also notice above that pane, it shows paging file system about 24GB...which is the RAM size.....
I guess paging file system is not considered as part of Windows folder..
If I add the paging file system(about 24GB) to Windows folder and program files folder size, it will come around 105 GBs

I see you can change the size of paging file, but how do you change the drive it should go to?
