This program lists all items on the harddrive. Just make sure to run it as administrator.

Sometimes people see that they have gigantic page files and such things.

Hi,

 

I remember that i saw a video from Linus where he used a software to see what used so much space on the drive etc.

I have a problem that my co-worker has used all his space and i don't know exactly what used it.

 

Can anyone help ? :)

WinDirStat. Has a nice graphical representation of what is taking up the space. Also shows their directory
