Don't know where to start 6 days ago

My PC is so full and I really want to clean it up. I am trying to figure out where to start. I would like to be computer savvy and not have to depend on a free program to do this.

It's done!! 4 months ago

I’ve been wanting to do this one for a LOONG time (my 30gig hard drive keeps running out of space!) I’ve freed up about 8 gigs by removing pics, programs, and music to my brand new external hard drive. It took a while because my old hard drive was crashing… thanks to Best Buy, I got a brand new 320 gig drive for the same price as my old 160gig drive (that was still under warrentee :-)

Mail Overload 5 months ago

I’ve been avoiding my e-mail client for a while now which isn’t helping things. I normally get at least two hundred e-mails in a checking, so this cleaning is long overdue.

I managed to get rid of 40mb so far and I’m hoping for even more today. Nearly 4,000 e-mail messages left to go…

I NEED TO CLEAN MY COMPUTER!



Where am I 7 months ago

Let’s see where I am with this. I have been trying to be careful with saving new files and installing new software. Files are very well-organised right now, and I’m still using just about 20 GB all together.

I made a text-file in which I note what I’m installing and for what purpose. I’ve put a note in my tickler file to go over that list (and anything else that might have found its way in…) in June, and also do a general file-cleanup then. (This to satisfy my yearly cleanup goal from the previous post.)

Still evaluating music, but in the meantime I’ve got 1592 files left. I forgot about this for a while, I could go much faster of course.

Didn’t do much more on evaluating pictures. I looked through some of them (but I don’t know if I looked through all), and saved them to a cd, but the cd doesn’t seem to work, so I can’t delete them yet. In the meantime I’ve actually got a lot more pics to do (623).

So goals left:

  • evaluate remaining music (1592 files left)
  • evaluate pictures and print them out or at least save them onto a separate disc, and then delete them (623 files left)

Cleared E-mail 10 months ago

Most of the 450mb or so… is gone. A lot of it was junk and/or mailing list stuff and it went back as far as 2005 in some instances. /shame/

I have, maybe, 25mb to go and then I’ll have finished with that aspect at least.
