   Windows has a built-in feature that helps you free up disk space; it’s called Disk Cleanup. Just click the Start button and then search for it by name. Once you select this feature on your PC ...

3. Hard disk drive failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_failure

   A hard disk failure may occur in the course of normal operation, or due to an external factor such as exposure to fire or water or high magnetic fields, or suffering a sharp impact or environmental contamination, which can lead to a head crash . The stored information on a hard drive may also be rendered inaccessible as a result of data ...

4. System Restore - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Restore

   The amount of disk space System Restore consumes can be configured. Starting with Windows XP, the disk space allotted is configurable per volume and the data stores are also stored per volume. Files are stored using NTFS compression and a Disk Cleanup handler allows deleting all but the most recent Restore Points. System Restore can be disabled ...

5. Microsoft Reserved Partition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Reserved_Partition

   Microsoft Reserved Partition. A Microsoft Reserved Partition ( MSR) is a partition of a data storage device, which is created to reserve a portion of disk space for possible subsequent use by a Windows operating system installed on a separate partition. No meaningful data is stored within the MSR; though from the MSR, chunks may be taken for ...

6. Compact space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_space

   Compact space. Per the compactness criteria for Euclidean space as stated in the Heine–Borel theorem, the interval A = (−∞, −2] is not compact because it is not bounded. The interval C = (2, 4) is not compact because it is not closed (but bounded). The interval B = [0, 1] is compact because it is both closed and bounded.

7. Disk partitioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning

   Disk partitioning or disk slicing [1] is the creation of one or more regions on secondary storage, so that each region can be managed separately. [2] These regions are called partitions. It is typically the first step of preparing a newly installed disk, before any file system is created. The disk stores the information about the partitions ...

8. Catastrophic failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catastrophic_failure

   Catastrophic failure. A catastrophic failure is a sudden and total failure from which recovery is impossible. Catastrophic failures often lead to cascading systems failure. The term is most commonly used for structural failures, but has often been extended to many other disciplines in which total and irrecoverable loss occurs, such as a head ...

9. Disk compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_compression

   A disk compression software utility increases the amount of information that can be stored on a hard disk drive of given size. Unlike a file compression utility, which compresses only specified files—and which requires the user to designate the files to be compressed—an on-the-fly disk compression utility works automatically through resident software without the user needing to be aware of ...
