If your disk still contains too much information after running the Disk
Cleanup Tool, I suggest that you add either a second hard drive in your
computer or an external USB hard drive. Then move your large folders to the
new hard drive. Open My Computer, right click on each folder and choose
Properties. If the contents is large, move it to the new drive.
