To get rid of W8 files, right click on your drive, hit disk cleanup, and click the clean system files checkbox, and it will delete W8. Keep in mind if you delete W8, you won't be able to revert to it.

That's all you need to know. It's a beast.

files? like all stuff removed from hdd and ssd?

 

Stuff got removed from partitions you chose to delete. Your C:\ partition was on SSD most likely. Have you deleted or formated C:\ partition when you were reinstalling windows?

Or tell us step by step how you did "fresh install"

In that case there is nothing to worry about drivers. They will get deleted after fresh install along with old windows files, programs etc. Thats why it's called "fresh install" :)
