Troubleshooting a PC that freezes after Boot
I have no idea why it's doing this.

Because it needs a blanket.

Another site with way to much space used.
Turns out - its the temp folder in Windows - 412 GB on a 500 Gb hard drive
Holy Shit

Now google said can delete all of it, but is that safe to extra sure

I do this on a regular basis. Anything in that folder that windows still needs, it wont let you delete anyways. Just select all and skip the ones at the end that it can't delete.

Well, Windows 7 should all be going away in another year when it goes out of support, so hopefully you won't have to deal with this bug too often.

The other one I've seen a lot is the winsxs directory filling up, and you really don't want to go randomly deleting things from that one. (dism++ for that)

There must have been a windows update that changed this behavior a few years ago. When W7 first came out, I don't remember having to do this ever. Now I do it probably once a week or so to somebody's workstation, both W7 and W10. But that folder will completely fill the hard drive if allowed to, and nothing ever seems to clean it out automatically.

Yup, we always delete that stuff. Just normal maintenance.

We have W7 machines that have this issue. but only noticed it recently.
