Earlier this morning i was just browsing the 'net when I notice a warning pop up from my tool bar saying I have low disk-space and I should remove some files. 'Weird' I thought, as I had cleaned a good 5+GB space not long ago. Now when I check my disk-space using 'Computer' I see my C: drive has say 581MB free, I refresh it and it has 585MB free, refresh again and now has 584. :huh: So it's constantly going up and down while I'm doing nothing at-all. I installed one program yesterday which was AVG Free version and I can't remember installing anything else for at least a month. Does this usually happen when I have low disk-space? Any idea's why it's happening? (It's now on 572MB :lol: ). I was worried how it went down so fast earlier. Are there any logs I can view on Vista? As I finished this topic it's on 553MB.
When you're dealing with amounts that small, there's going to be constant variations on it's estimations of how much is available. It's perfectly normal.
Is it a new computer? Anyhow, you can read here about where disk space goes when using Vista. So when it's a new one, especially look at the first issue there, could be something like that.

How about a disk cleanup, a program that comes with Vista and use it to delete all those restore points you have made over the time. Come back, and brag about how much of your precious MB's have returned.
