[@fr8tran]

Thanks for this video. It helped get my system to run a lot faster than it did before. There is just 1 thing that I think everyone should know though. As you keep going back into "Disk Cleanup" each time to delete files, you are actually deleting everything in your "Download" file under "This PC". So, if there is something there that they want to keep, they better make a folder in "Documents" and move all that content there. I only know this because I followed the steps for Disk Cleanup until I had 0 left to delete. After I did all that, I restarted my PC (Started up so much faster) and went to my "Download" file to start some videos I had downloaded before following these steps and they were all gone, as well as downloaded programs .exe files I keep for future purposes or to re-install on another device. All of that was deleted, not angry, because those programs still operate (Thank goodness), now I have to remember what all of the programs I installed are. Yes, it is a little funny, just happy that it didn't affect them. Very happy that I didn't delete important items.

Temporary files: 3:20 I noticed in your example that only 'Empty recycle bin' was selected, whereas in my pc it defaulted to selecting ALL the boxes in my Temp files. It's probably not important, but thought I'd mention it as - for whatever reason - some people might not want to delete all the data being automatically selected within this utility.
