I can grow the disk space if needed but I'm just infuriated that I can't see what's taking up this space.ĭoes anyone have any tips? We don't seem to get this issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 VM's.– Added SPLUNKF-028(QSPLUNKF668): Splunk Universal Forwarder 6.6.8 I'm aware that the winsxs folder is a popular culprit for taking (and lying about) disk space but I don't think you can manually intervene in cleaning it up. Essentially I have about 15-20GB unaccounted for. Searching around, there are only two user accounts on there with minimals amounts of data in their profiles, and there are no temporary or installation files lying around.

Thing is, there doesn't seem to be anything else to delete.

* Disable Windows Error Reporting (there was a large cache of error reports - the app it runs is unreliable!) We've done EVERYTHING to free up space on this disk: There is one single application installed (which seemingly only occupies 3GB of space) but the VM is now down to only 2GB of space free on the C: drive.

The VM in question has a 40GB C: drive and a 30GB D: drive.

They're on a virtual environment so, accordingly, we try and size them to make best use of available disk space and resources. I'm at my wits end with some Windows Server 2008 (not R2) servers.
