Allocated Restore Size

I was checking my current allocated restore size, and comparing from
what I saw in Shawn's tutorial, it seems a lot of space allocated on my
C drive. This is what it said in C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe : --
" Used Shadow Copy Storage space: 11.695 GB
Allocated Shadow Copy Storage space: 14.542 GB
Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space: 14.882 GB "
Should I reduce the size or leave it as is ? Thank you
PS. My C drive has 99.2 GB

Hi,

The default is 15% of the drive, so what you are seeing is normal. Unless
you have a need for drive space, I'd leave it alone.
