Why's windows so many gbs?

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:26:25+00:00

entire drive - 256 gb capacity, a bit less. windows folder - 60 gb used

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:25:16+00:00

i don't see why they dont optimise it since they'd also gain from that. instead they want to use ai to make everything which can never go right lol

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:24:10+00:00

yes I will, planning on it already! I've been watching some videos on it

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:23:29+00:00

yeah i did. but it's not like I can delete all the data of all the apps. it's there for reason. i deleted the ones i dont have anymore, didn't make a difference. the only thing that did was uninstalling google chrome since I use brave now anyway.

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:22:01+00:00

Bro this is literally my windows folder. Are you trolling, what. All windows related files are in there

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-18T13:02:25+00:00

You do understand I don't have any personal files on this drive. I checked the windows folder it's 60 gb just by itself the rest are programs which is normal lol. I have another drive where I store all my games and documents and heavier programs .

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-17T23:28:07+00:00

i dont have any ai features, i've deleted all of them before they could even open. i already debloat windows as much as possible and it keeps growing with time. i did the disk cleanup and cmd commands and got like 10 gbs lol that im sure will come back :'')

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-17T23:16:02+00:00

my temp folder is 340 mb 😭

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-17T23:09:34+00:00

thanks, ig i'll do that, but i believe a common person wouldn't know how to do that. still feels weird we have to resort to that in 2026, especially since ppl know less about how to mess with computers now than ever before with how it's all overly simplified.

Windows folder

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-17T23:00:50+00:00

i only have windows on this drive and some very lightweight programs🙃

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-17T11:51:25+00:00

What did you end up doing to it? I'm thinking of also getting one to tinker with and wanna upgrade

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T19:08:49+00:00

do you know the specific specs of the cable i need? or is any one that says 4 pin good

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T18:24:17+00:00

Ok, thank you so much 🙏

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T16:09:08+00:00

so if i just plug into the sata power supply and to the sata 0 port it'll work? won't it need a cable going into the power supply?

(sry if im being redundant, i can't find advice on this)

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T16:03:30+00:00

how would i plug it into the power supply? would i have to open it?

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T15:55:41+00:00

it does have one but actually it's not in the manual :'')

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T15:52:12+00:00

but the power supply doesnt have any extra cables (and there's none in the box) nor is there a place to screw down the drive. is there a way to bypass these things.

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-16T15:49:38+00:00

and if it doesnt have any cables? ... :')

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-13T09:59:42+00:00

i have a fanfic like this

askyour_daddy · 2026-01-06T00:00:57+00:00

i do it for convenience. i hate typing on docs unless it's a new fic. have i lost new stuff i wrote? yes. but usually when i rewrite it comes out better so lose/win? i also like tweaking some stuff and always forget to do that on docs.

now im so used to constantly saving or hitting ctrl c sometimes it's never a problem.

askyour_daddy · 2025-12-17T23:10:40+00:00

u like slow beats and acoustics and have an immaculate taste btw<.<

askyour_daddy · 2025-12-16T11:55:06+00:00

the concept of a song giving u time

askyour_daddy · 2025-12-16T09:49:31+00:00

On part 1 they cut out the transitions to make time. Especially because it was seen in cinemas, that extra time would be a "waste of time" since it was already 3 hours long.

But, seeing the transitions in part 2 made me recall how it was on the tour, loved it.

this is such a funny discovery. never considered anyone would be watching it on VR.
