Experts,

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this question as it directly relates to Hard disk on Windows, but can someone let me know there is a application that will give a summary or an overview of what is taking up so much space on my hard disk?

Cheers

if you increased the virtual disk (as i suggested in your other question) then you need to extend in windows

either use disk management (easiest) to extend the disk (right-click on C and select extend; rescan disks first if free space doesn't show) or use diskpart (command line)
Hi Seth,

Thanks for responding.

I don't see the option to extend, when I right click C:

you right click on C in disk management, not windows explorer
