Hey all, PC is running slow due to me having a tonne of stuff on it (built PC May 2016 ish, now have like 1.5tb filled on my 2tb hdd, yikes). I don't have any malware (at least... I don't think I do), I just have a lot of stuff in general. I'm going to buy a small SSD on my next paycheck probably to transfer Windows to (how hard is it to do that, btw?). So my question is, is starting afresh worth it? I kind of want to get rid of all of the junk on my PC, but don't know where to start. I initially thought it was mostly games, so I uninstalled a lot of the Steam games I wasn't playing, but that was only like 200GB. Before someone recommends it, I've used CCleaner, and whilst it was helpful, it did not quite do the trick for me. So anyway, do you think I should wipe my HDD (if so, how should I go about doing it? I've heard bad things about just straight up factory resetting, can't remember what it was though), and if not, what are the alternative options?
Thanks all!
