Step1
To free up space on your computer start by Defragmenting and doing a Disk Clean up on your files and system. Typically you can get to this feature through the start menu it is usually under "System Tools".

Depending on how much room you have currently to start with it may take several minutes to several hours to completely defragment.

Also remember to clear your cache, cookies and browsing history often as this information bogs down room on your system too.

The next step to free up space on your computer is to Delete any unnecessary files, pictures and uninstall any unused programs.
