A while back I started to notice that my disk was filling up for unknown reasons, I couldn’t find any humongous files that could explain what was happening, but the free space on my boot disk was rapidly disappearing.

Hundreds of gigabytes were just gone.

Apparently the invisible Windows System Volume Information folder was filling up, with nothing to stop it. Glary let me find it, and I was able to put a limit on the size, and it is no longer a problem. It’s apparently a useful function, but somehow it went rogue on my system. I have no idea why, but I have limited it to something like 100 GB, and that’s fine, and I still have loads of free space that I won’t ever use.

Because of that experience, I became a paying customer of Glary, and I will remain as such.

I should add some FReeper whose name I forget recommended Glary, and that was good advice.
