By Mark Osborne


Perhaps you have ignored "low disk space" warning

When one partition is out of space, a "low disk space" warning dialog box will pop up from the right bottom of the task bar. Many users think it over to be annoying and disable it without hesitation. However, it is not recommended that you do that, especially for system C: drive.

In such case, the computer might be fighting for the precious space and may run much slowly. What's worse, should the Windows system runs out of physical RAM memory, it will try to create virtual memory with a great mass of disk drive space. And if there isn't enough disc drive space available, your applications may fail and also your system might just fall down and go boom.

Generally, by far the most time-saving and easiest solution is to resize partition with reliable third-party partition software. This means that, shrinking other partition to develop some free space and extending the low disk space drive with the unallocated space.
