AW: AW: Reallocating drive space
Yes that iTunes Backup-files is a huge spacekiller, especially if you have "Roaming Profiles" in your Domain LogOn and LogOff then takes tens of minutes... Only solution is to make a Symbolic Link of that directory to somewhere else outside the User-directory (use MKLINK.exe for that), since Apple is too stupid to make the backup target somehow configurable. wOOdy -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: ProFox Im Auftrag von Eric Selje Gesendet: Donnerstag, 22.

Multiple iTunes backups of a phone, into a subfolder of %appdata%, was a recent hidden culprit in a client's disk issues. I used WinDirStat but will check out WizTree.

Maybe you should first clean up your C drive: Open a CMD window with administrative Rights. Start "CleanMgr /sageset:1" In that dialogue select all entries, beside of "User Shadow Copies" Close it.
