Despite the ever-increasing storage space provided by the hard drives of our computers, we still end up exhausting this resource due to our incessant habit of downloading material off the <\/span>Internet<\/b>. Downloading material itself from the <\/span>Internet<\/b> is not the problem, the problem is that even after the downloaded material has served its purpose, we forget to delete it.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This proves to be an unnecessary burden on the computer\u2019s hard drive. To make matters even worse, our computer also stores a lot of temporary files which are of no use and they unnecessarily occupy a huge chunk<\/a> of the computer\u2019s hard drive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now back in the old days, we would have to periodically perform the mundane task of freeing up storage space. These tasks included deleting temporary files, emptying the <\/span>Recycle Bin<\/b> and scrutinizing the download folder. The troubling aspect of this all was that we had to perform these tasks either manually or semi-manually using a third-party software program.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fear no more, as with the <\/span>Windows 10 Creators Update<\/b>,<\/span> a new feature saw the light of the day that keeps an eye on the amount of unnecessary material stored on your hard drive and automatically clears it from time to time. This new feature is called <\/span>Storage Sense<\/b>. <\/span>Storage Sense<\/b> is an optional feature (disabled by default). However, once it is enabled, it will automatically delete the temporary files created by your web browser and other apps. Files that are lying in the <\/span>Recycle Bin<\/b> for more than <\/span>30 days<\/b> are also removed automatically. You can even tweak this feature so that files are permanently deleted once they\u2019ve completed <\/span>24 hours<\/b> of sitting in the <\/span>Recycle Bin<\/b>. In situations where you are critically running low on storage space, <\/span>Storage Sense<\/b> will even offer you the option to delete the previous version of <\/span>Windows 10<\/b> to instantly clear up some storage space.<\/span><\/p>\n
