    Please use WinDirStat to find the folder with unwanted content.
    On the basis of what the Lord wrote, I dare not suggest anything more.

    Since it is WinSxS - I skip some opportunities for risk-takers, because they and weaving little as a result - it already takes up almost 41GB, it makes no sense to look for anything further until the system partition is enlarged (e.g. x2).
    You can clean - remove even the system disk cleaning "Clean system files" - SoftwareDistribution content (always> 2GB), but not much more.

    System clean the C drive -> delete Windows Update backup files (I don't remember exactly what this item is called) and reporting files (those with a few GB).
    Of course, click "Clean up system files" - you slow down, shoot 25-30 GB :)

    In addition, 65 GB on C with Win10 is definitely not enough.

    First, you click "clean" and the "Clean system files" option will appear at the bottom left. :)

    Before you start acting in accordance with the undoubtedly right advice of previous speakers, please read the following:

    Believe me, it's worth a try. Just make a scan and see how much you can save.

    Just out of curiosity ... What is this 1.8 GB PNG file? ;)
    Delete all restore points (if the system is OK) and limit the space for this purpose to e.g. 5-6 GB - I turned it off completely, I do Backup quite often (it takes 20 minutes with Acronis :)

    5.6 GB is not enough for you ... Did you use all the tips? Have you done a reboot?

    With Dism ++ - probably now it's "mustard after dinner -" I advise you to be careful. You can hurt yourself, and even more the system.
    However, this is a matter of settings, User confidence and Murphy's rights.

    Once again, I suggest you consider resizing your system partition.

    Did you system clean the C drive?
    Have you cleaned up system files? -> mainly Backup files Service Pack + Windows Update + Thumbnails

    Have you deleted all restore points (if system OK) and limited the space for this purpose to e.g. 5-6 GB?
    I think restore points are taking your place ...
    System protection ->
    "D" -> configure, delete all points and turn off
    "C" -> configure and delete all points, then use the slider to reduce the space (you are sure to set it to 100% space - this is the default).

    today, after a while of playing, I enter and see that there are only less than 6 left.

    In the Users folder, for example, you have replays from GRID 1/2/3, Dirt 1/2/3/4 = 7GB.
    The game saves are also there. 1 save is 3-10? MB x 100 = 1GB and more (I shoot).
    Sam Ccleaner, how many GB does he find after clicking "Analysis"?
    You created such a small partition yourself, and the software still lands on C: \ Program Files? What?
    Do you have the necessary installs in the Downloads folder? On D: \ with them!
    Delete all temporary ones. Even old installation data for things that you won't uninstall (manually) anyway.
    Ccleaner will not remove all TMP / TEMP for fear of a mishap, but fixlist.txt for FRST
    Fixlist.txt content:
    EmptyTemp:

    Save by FRST.exe and select "Repair".
    There are other clever cleaners, e.g. Privazer. I recommend.

    If that's what's happening to you, I also suggest you.
    As a curiosity, my C: \ = 29GB W7-64bit. Occupied 50%.

    I don't see folders with replay saves at all, but I never save them myself, so I doubt that there is something there, save the same.

    Maestro, GRID and DIRT write without asking. This is where saves according to You?
    They are often in All Users / Default Users / Default, not in "Username".
    Take TotalCommander and hit the spacebar on the Users folder. How long does this folder take? Mi 900MB.

    Do you have hidden / system files enabled as visible at all (In TC-Preferences-> Display)? Linux would be more convenient, because Windows hides half of the rubbish.

    First of all, I do not believe you that you cleaned system files as I wrote.
    Second, I don't believe you deleted your restore points - they took nothing ?! You must be kidding!
    Third, how many times do you need to write that partitions are written in CAPITAL LETTERS ?!
    Finally, since you are not doing what I write, I am done with the topic.

    Yes for the information ...
    Option " Clean up system files "cleans just WinSxS folder using the system DISM (the system knows better what can be deleted!) by selecting Service Pack + Windows Update backup files you can min. Free 20 GB.

    And this is how? 14.5 GB? I also have Win7 64-bit ;)

    As for the restore points, they did not have a separate space, so they took almost nothing.

    I have a feeling that you have no idea about it, so let me show it graphically:

    Cleaning up the system files did nothing, it freed up so little space that I barely noticed it, maybe 2-3 GB was added.

    1. Click "Clean C drive" and wait for the result, how much space can be recovered -> you do nothing, just click "Clean system files" and wait for the result
    2. Select "Service Pack Backup Files" + "Windows Update" + "Thumbnails" and click "Clean"
    3. After cleaning you do RESTART - there will be system configuration and proper cleaning!

    Maybe it's through update? I had this shit turned on all the time, I just turned it off.

    This ain't shit! You are smarter than Microsoft, how many wise men in many forums?

    Prove with screenshots that you did what I wrote.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a user experiencing rapid disk space consumption on their Windows 10 C drive, which is partitioned to 65 GB. Despite efforts to manage space by directing installations to the D drive and cleaning temporary files, the available space continues to decrease significantly. Participants suggest using tools like WinDirStat and CCleaner for identifying large files and cleaning system files, including Windows Update backups and restore points. Recommendations also include resizing the C drive partition to accommodate Windows 10's requirements and disabling unnecessary features like hibernation and Windows Update. The user reports fluctuations in available space, indicating ongoing issues with disk management.
