Ways to Free Up Disk Space on an SSD in Windows 7 and 8..-Trick -3

Turn off System Restore - will free up a few gigabytes of disk space..

 
        System Restore creates backups of your most important system files, so that in case something goes wrong you can restore the system to a point back in time. However, this approach is not very effective. It is best to use a disk clone utility (e.g. Acronis True Image, Norton Ghost, etc.) for disk backups. The System Restore service usually uses a lot of disk space, so here's how to turn it off:

       Click the Start button, right click Computer and then click Properties.

       In the left pane click System Protection select the disk you want to turn off System Protection for and click Configure.

        Select Turn off system protection, click OK, and then click OK again.
