In the Gain Disk Space tab, you’ll find options for removing unnecessary files, old backups and unneeded Windows functions
Exactly!!Quote:

Not necessarily. They do other optimizations that squeeze a nickel here and a dime there but my method (which they also do) gets you the big bucks in a manner of speaking.Quote:
